Edinburgh

We've arrived in Edinburgh... WOW! What an impressive city.... lots of gothic architecture stacked upon more Gothic architecture. All the stones are black and brooding with age.. very majestic yet ominous. The city seems pretty diverse and edgy, very different from Glasgow and the north... and of course, Helen noticed lots of great shopping. Too bad we're watching our budget!

We're staying at a hostel... kinda shabby, but will do for now.



We're off to check out the bar scene. We've had enough folk music so far so we're eager to see what the kids are listening to here.

Cheers

Hi Oakleys,
Miss you guys!!!
Edinburgh is one of my most favarite cities.
I love the pub there, esp. the local funky drinks & crazy lamb dishes. If you have a chance, try the veg sparkling wine (A jar of light beer with carrot sticks & cucumber sticks inside...sound funky but it taste very fresh and light)
Miss you guys,
