John Muir Way - Queensferry to Cramond

[@billycrawford6080]

Hello there Eddy, another wee belter of a video,we had it all Today in that one. Crazy trees,lost socks and Romans,ferry boats and mental folk asking if you had seen the sign ? What sign ? Lol. Should have dropped them socks off at Partick police and asked how they got on with that squirell a couple of weeks ago... hahaha they would have taken you to a wee room made of rubber. Nice to see you out again pal and thanks for a infomative wee film, take care Eddy.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🥃👍

Many thanks Billy. The chap near the end was actually okay. I had a chat with him afterwards. When he asked about the sign I just hadn't a clue what was going on (left ma lunch too late). I suspect he missed the Cramond Inn, which was shut, and perhaps wondered if I had anything to do with things. We all miss the Cramond Inn. Take care.

Great Video Eddy, I went to primary school in Cramond from the mid 60's to early 70's it is still one of my favorite places in the world.

That small area where the River Almond meets the Firth of Forth just has a nice feel to it, and that is often so important. Many thanks.

I think this one's going to be hard to top. beautiful visuals of the three bridges over the Forth and a hint of Billy Conolly. Thumbs up Eddy!

[@EdExploresScotland]

Cheers. I try to make each video my best, which basically means I'm starting to feel the pressure. But thank you.

[@EdExploresScotland]

Glad you enjoyed it.

Hi Eddy. I really enjoyed this video. John Muir is pretty special in the US also. Thank go for him; otherwise we wouldn’t have our wonderful national parks. Yeah ❣️

[@EdExploresScotland]

Absolutely.

[@robertwright4651]

Great Eddy the rubber nose hilarious a joy to watch some nice spots over the east

[@EdExploresScotland]

Many thanks. Tam Shepherd's Joke Shop's a heck of a place.

Great video i spend many a happy weekend at the bikers cove in queensferry on my motorbike👍

[@EdExploresScotland]

Thank you. They've recently introduced a one-way system on Queensferry's main street, which is a good thing. Previously the main street was something of a vehicular nightmare.

[@andyp9040]

Yes it says its only temporary due to covid but i hope it lasts longer. The narrow cobbled high street is designed for two horse and carts passing. Not two cars! Its a bumpy ride on a motorbike. You need to stand on the pegs on a sportsbike. Take care eddy👍

[@EdExploresScotland]

Queensferry's main street almost has a North Berwick feel to it in that the pavements are too narrow (with the exception of those high bits) and there are too many cars and it's all crying out for pedestrianisation. I too hope it lasts longer.

[@levistubbs8949]

Wonderful vlog, really enjoyable and no hidden Z's .

[@EdExploresScotland]

Many thanks.

[@ianlindsay1454]

Well done Eddy, This is a fine video, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Ian and Angie.

[@EdExploresScotland]

Many thanks.

[@lindsayshaw5091]

Eddy, you had me scrambling to my book case to dig out my "Weir's Way" collection. When Tom was there in the 80's I think, he actually went across the river on the ferry! As you say, It's a pity someone doesn't bring it back. Probably something to do with Health and safety.

[@EdExploresScotland]

It's just one of those small things that would save a few miles and be a bit of an adventure in its own right.

[@dougiemilnephotography756]

Another interesting video, and well researched as always. Another good walk from South Queensferry that I highly recommend is along the old railway to Ratho via Kirkliston and Newbridge. There was a time, believe it or not, when trains ran all the way to Port Edgar and had to climb that hill out of Queensferry.

[@EdExploresScotland]

Many thanks. Certainly plenty of walking opportunities in the area. I'll check it out.

[@iansoutdoorsrecovery7971]

Fantastic I cycle to queensferry regular never been that area my next ride I think thank you

[@EdExploresScotland]

Great views towards Edinburgh at one point.

[@RG-5834]

Great video Eddy, and added to that, a fascinating history lesson. Love the Forth Bridge/Rail Bridge, it must surely be one of Scotland’s most iconic man made structures. Nice to have good weather for your day out, I was looking forward to your choice of pie or a nice cold beer, maybe next time. Take care Eddy, and cheers for now, regards Rob.

[@EdExploresScotland]

Thanks. The Cramond Inn was closed at the time, much to my disappointment. Maybe next time.

The Scottish know how to do bridges without a shadow of doubt

[@EdExploresScotland]

Indeed we do.
