Based on our earlier trip to Stonehaven we followed the Angus Coastal Route to Aberdeen. However, we made a number of detours. We thought of stopping at Stonehaven for lunch. But first, since we dropped by at the town of Montrose we decided to go strawberry picking at Charleton Fruit Farm before continuing our journey. Some photos to share. Enjoy! :-D
Though it is still quite early, the parking area is nearly full. We made our way to the farm shop, picked our baskets and off to the strawberry area.
A pretty start
Getting there...
Three Farm workers who rather spend the morning sleeping!
The Happy Pickers - Satisfied with the harvest!!!
Farmers Beware!!!

Now, to the raspberry patch

Beautiful isn't it?
Closer look - That's barley for you

Have to stop here. Hopefully I can continue with the next part soon. Cheers! :-D
