After breakfast in a cold and windy Berwick, we braved said cold and wind to have a look at (a part of) the town walls, and then the viaduct of many arches over the Tweed River for the trains.

| It's a bit chilly! |
 |
| The town walls along the river |
 |
| Most of the viaduct |
 |
| Main street of town and Town Hall at end of street |
From there, it was off to the border between England and Scotland, with the obligatory photo stop.
Our final planned stop for the day was at the Falkirk wheel, an amazing feat of Scottish engineering ingenuity - requiring only as much energy as used by the boiling of 8 tea kettles to turn the wheel through a 180 degrees revolution.

| 1/2 way through a transition |
 |
| Coming into the cradle at the top of the Wheel for the trip back down. |
Not a very busy day, but a good one nonetheless - even if the weather was not the best.
