Literally sprinted off the 18th green on The Old Course at St. Andrews to run to hotel and shower.  10 Minutes later I was in Rocca meeting up with a golf group of 16 men.  I had just played The Old Course and had a Par on 18.  I was exhuberant smiling ear to ear.  There was no higher feeling that I can remember walking into our private dining room where everyone else had been for over an hour. Most all had already finished their meals.  Me and Peter had just played The Old Course and we were late.  I was on cloud nine feeling like I had just won the lottery.  Cannot explain the feeling but it was high. Way high.  I grabbed a glass of wine and quickly viewed the set three course menu that had been arranged for our group of golfers.  I ordered the Gratin of Hand Dive Scallops.  Scallops and sauce were good but there was a bunch of things on this plate that shouldn't have been there.  One thing was purple and harder than a rock. Uneatable.  Next up was the Linguine with Lobster.  The Lobster was delicious and the pasta was good.  The sauce had a bit of a bitter taste.   The Cheesecake with Strawberries was perfect.  Simple and light.  What a nice way to enjoy my last day at St. Andrews.  Good food, good wine and company of new found friends.
