we're in EDINBURGH! and we love it. the 7 am train (with 3 hours of sleep for ruthie and 30 minutes for marianne) was so worth it. we got here at 11:30 today, got ourselves checked in to this wonderful hostel, and then went on a 3 hour walking tour that surpasses any tour we have been on yet (except for maybe the boat cruise...) scotland is so cool. if it wasn't so raining and dark and cold here, it just might have to be home.
after eating our first successful hamburger in europe, we went on a 30 minute scavanger hunt for scotland attire. successful, we ventured back to our hostel to find the michael jackson funeral on tv. after finally finding a spot that was not over taken by peopel who didn't care, we were able to watch in somewhat peace. i think everyone across the pond is sick of hearing about it, but we arent so it was pretty emotional. marianne even got out the video camera and taped it. good call.
we are going to try to hike arthur's seat (we think that's it?) in the morning to get a good view of edinburgh and then it's back to London!
love you edinburgh
