Edinburgh √

Edinburgh
a place that must visit in UK.
we actually randomly decided to go to Edinburgh before the day.
RANDOM. without checking the forecast weather and attractions to visit.
started the trip at 6.30am from our hostel to Buchanan bus station.


it took 1 hour and 20 minutes to reach Edinburgh. here we go. 
we relied on a GPS and walked to Arthur's Seat at first and then headed to Edinburgh Castle.

Arthur's Seat is a hill up to 250.5m high which has a excellent view of Edinburgh city.
can you believe it?
seriously, the wind is strong enough to blow a person away. 
i am not kidding, it's TRUE! 
i feel fortunate that we escaped from that terrible rain and wind on the peak. 
we were completely WET. 
luckily the sun appeared once we reached the ground and thus we dried ourselves under the sun naturally. 
it's a good experience though.





TOP!
after that we went to Edinburgh Castle. 
a very big grand castle.
full with histories. 
it is surely worth for visiting.




reached home around 11pm.
It was mooncake festival night. 外国的月亮有比较圆阿吗? :) 
summary: we walked and climbed for 13 hours, deducted the bus journey and the time taken for lunch and dinner.

we would like to visit Edinburgh again for other attractions in future.
