Dunblane, Scotland

For a few weeks I have the pleasure of visiting the town of Dunblane in Scotland while working with a client based in the area.  The company has booked me into the Doubletree by Hilton hotel.  See the photos.  It is a beautiful building both inside and out with immaculately manicured gardens.

This evening I took a walk into the town to get something to eat and walked a few blocks afterwards before returning to the hotel.  It is a very pretty town with many old stone buildings and traditional architecture.  There is a little river that runs through it.

Andy Murray, British tennis player, grew up in Dunblane.  On my walk I passed the gold mailbox in the town, painted gold to commemorate the fact that Andy won the gold medal in the men's singles tennis at the London 2012 Olympic games ... which may or may not be of interest to anyone reading.  Still, it's not every day you see a gold Royal Mail box.
