Well, one week ago today we were in Edinburgh. It was much more busier than I expected, verging on a par with London. The difference being that people in Edinburgh looked at you rather than avoiding eye contact at all costs. On occasions when through mis-direction I almost walked into someone, we both 'apologised'!
Edinburgh itself was simply stunning, apart from the tram system that seems to be distroying the road in the main part of the new city...I was advised not to mention the 'trams'.
The old part of the city was great, the castle upon the hill and the surrounding roads and shops were very picturesque.
The only downside, if there was one, was the drive back. Driving there, the last part of the journey was on the A68, very picturesque, very quiet road and brought back pleasure to driving. The last part of the return journey was A1 - A14...it felt like being on a race track.
