A bit of a travel and transition today as we left Ireland for a couple of days in Scotland.
Has been really great to spend time with Matt and Kat and sad to say goodbye again, however we are all moving on with the next part of our journeys. Not sure when/where we will all meet up next but it’s exciting to ponder that! An exciting day today for Kat too as she started her new job in Dublin.
We are now in Edinburgh – had a bit of a tiki tour this pm (partly unplanned as we got a little lost). I didn’t realise how much of a rock Edinburgh Castle sits on – in fact an extinct volcano – quite an impressive sight. Also admired Palace of Holyroodhouse where Liz stays when she’s in town (not at the castle!). Our apartment looks out towards the palace and we have a great view of its’ backdrop Arthur’s Seat – another impressive piece of rock.
Had dinner at Britannia Spice so named for proximity to the Royal yacht Britannia now berthed and open to the public at Leith – the port area of Edinburgh.
