    Edinburgh Castle

    December 29, 2019 in Scotland ⋅ 🌬 10 °C

    Day two in Edinburgh started with a cooked up brekky and coffee from the local before we headed out for the day. Our destination was Edinburgh Castle, an old military castle situated high up on cliffs int he middle of the city. It was an awesome sight.
    We grabbed our audio guide and hit the battlements. It was fascinating to learn about the Scottish military involvement in past wars. And also learn about Queen Mary of Scots as an actual real person in history. We explored the castle, tasted some Scotch whiskey at the top. Wasn’t long before that sun was setting, which was stunning from the top of the castle.
    We jumped back on a bus and wandered on down to a restaurant for dinner. We thought we’d go catch a movie at the local cinema before heading home for the night. Keen to explore a bit of the surrounding countryside tomorrow.
