Wet and Windy On the Forth Bridge

I decided to take a train to Queensferry and walk across the Forth Bridge because, well I like walking across bridges. I found the footpath up to the road bridge and despite the wet and windy conditions I enjoyed the bracing fresh air, and the view of the iconic rail bridge to my right, and the new road bridge to my left. I was overtaken by a lady pushing a pram. Oh well. South Queensferry is quite a pretty little town for a wander, then up the long steep set of steps, which wore me out. to get back to the station. In the afternoon had a wander around Edinburgh Castle accompanied by a torrential downpour and crowds of foreign tourists, probably not the best way to see the castle.Weiterlesen
