    Merry Christmas!

    December 25, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 7 °C

    Merry Christmas all! It may be a day late when everyone is reading this, but it's still relevant to us!

    We awoke this morning and found mini sock stockings out our front door with some fruits and chocolates from the workers here. So in traditional fashion we were able to enjoy chocolates for breakfast!

    We lounged around for a bit but eventually headed out for a stroll as we wanted to get somewhat over 1k steps! We ended up just continuing walking and getting lost before grabbing a butterbeer and a shop that claims it overlooks the inspiration for Diagon alley.

    We made our way to the hostel, relaxed before making our way down for a 4pm lunch/dinner.

    We were seated between some American siblings and some French ladies and engaged in some very interesting conversations - including trying to teach the Americans what a Christmas cracker was, and how to partake in the cracking.

    After a 3 course meal, and Phill being a terrible influence on our new found friends we sat around for a bit meeting new people before heading out to a pub nearby to enjoy a late night beverage.

    Merry Christmas all!

    Step count: 12.5k
    (Probably the most steps we've ever had for Christmas...)
