We thought we had three weeks for our tour of Scotland, which we sort of did, in total. However, having spent pretty much a week getting here, and then another few days waiting for today&#8217;s filming, we find ourselves with 10 days before we need to be back home. Would that be enough time to do the North Coast 500 justice? Should we look to do the North East 250 instead? Should we just stay around the East Neuk as there&#8217;s loads to see here? Heads were scratched, satnav drive times consulted and finally we decided to go for it. It will mean driving every day (a habit we&#8217;re trying to get out of), and we know we won&#8217;t get to see everything, but it should whet our appetites enough to prompt a return trip sooner rather than later when we have more time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"279\" height=\"181\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/nc500.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36675\"\/><figcaption>NC500 Route &#8211; Source <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/North_Coast_500\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Wikipedia (opens in a new tab)\">Wikipedia<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So as soon as we&#8217;d wrapped up our filming this afternoon, we headed north as fast as the variable speed cameras would allow.
