• Snow time like the present

    December 30, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 5 °C

    This morning we woke up for the final time in a shared dorm, packed up our gear and then went and made a coffee.

    We relaxed for a while as we had no real plans for today and had plenty of time to wait until we checked in for our next accommodation. While we were sat there we checked the weather and lo and behold the report said there was a 50% chance of snow fall! Shortly after we looked out the window and surely enough, there were the lovely little flakes falling from the sky!! So we donned our jackets and went outside. While there was minimal ground coverage, we were able to walk around the streets for a while and enjoy the view. It was great!

    Eventually we decided to visit a small magic and witchcraft museum that we had walked past a few times, and then topped it off with a jacket potato for lunch.

    After we were nice and full of warm potato, we went back to the hostel, collected our belongings, then walked to the north side of the city where our new room was. Once we checked in we used the remaining light to explore the area. It was a little strange seeing new buildings after spending so much time in the "old town"... The latter definitely has more character!

    On the way home we grabbed dinner and watched a movie in bed.
