Sat 23 Sept 11° Edinburgh

Very quiet night, woke to a lovely sunny day for our day in the city. Just a note that the fresh salmon was 240 grams for £3.16...good price.

Several large Motorhomes in last night, very popular place, toilets open till 8.30pm with outside beach showers for the hardy folk.

Spoke to our Scottish neighbours who come and stay for a week, love it, shops and restaurants nearby great spot and it's free!

We caught the bus into Edinburgh, took nearly and hour, busy with traffic, went to Waverly station information centre, bought tickets for hop on hop off bus £14 each for seniors, then joined the queue......very busy teaming with people....Saturday.  Very slow trip round the city with the traffic, buildings quite close so not too good for taking photos. Did the circuit then 2nd time round got off at the castle, £13.50 each for seniors with a walking guide. Very interesting, built on an old volcanic lava rock high above the city.

Dismantling the stands after the Tattoo

The great hall

On way back passed a very loud concert in the park, we walked to a seafood restaurant that was advertised, but this is Edinburgh on a Saturday night...and it was full to 9.30pm, walked to another, but way out of our price range....so Weatherspoons it was then. Again it was chocker block full...found one table for 2 next to a nice Scottish couple.

Pleasant evening to finish our great day in Edinburgh,  bus back to Fisherrow and another very nice Scottish couple.
