After a couple of very rainy days, today was forecast to be dry, so we headed for a day out in Edinburgh. In no particular order we:
● Walked the Golden Mile - both directions, very touristy
● Saw the castle from many different angles - but not inside
● Spent a couple of hours on the Royal Yacht Britannia - dressed up as a sailor to pour a pint whilst saluting
● Said hello to Greyfriars Bobby - he turned out to be a cute little Skye Terrier who guarded the grave of his master for 14 years
● Saw the debating chamber of the Scottish Parliament - no sign of Alex Salmond
● Stared through the gates of Holyrood Palace - home to the Queen when she visits the Scottish capital
● Hiked to the top of Salisbury Crag - amazing views over the city
● Ran most of the local Parkrun - couldn't cross the finish line as I didn't have my card
Phew, what a day!
