Edinburgh — Royal Mile

It’s beautiful here. The city sits on top of two parallel ridges with a few bridges connecting the two across the small valley in between. It really makes for dramatic views, especially because the castle and the Old Town are at the highest point. Saturday afternoon was very busy with lots of crowds up and down the Royal Mile between Edinburgh Castle and the Palace of Holyroodhouse. I don’t think the crowds are for the improv festival, but I’m looking forward to going again today. The show was great last night. It’s so amazing what people can come up with off the top of their heads. Their slogan for the festival is “Be bold, be playful, be unique, be fearless.” They were certainly all of those things. The Berlin group had 3 people, and they worked really well together. The team from Glasgow had 5 which seems much harder, but they killed it — nonstop laughter. Happily, there was very little audience participation.Läs mer
