We stayed for a few hours; had some 'award winning' chips from the local chippie, walked the narrow streets and along the harbour wall and generally took in the atmosphere of the place.   We could see the East Lothian coast but it was covered in shadow and mist and we couldn't make out Dunbar.  However we could see ...
