Edinburgh

What springs to mind when you hear Edinburgh?

Yes, I know, exactly what I used to think - its not London! With every city/country I visit, I realise there is so much more than London... meaning there is so much more to see! I've written myself a list of all the countries I would like to visit within the next 5 years. London is my home but anything different is always a breath of fresh air.

I went to Edinburgh for a few days at the end of last year. It was not the most convenient time because of the weather. My outbound flight was cancelled two nights before I was due to go, booked another flight and that was fine but the return flight got cancelled and I had to take a train home (8hr journey). LONG! That slight mishap did not take away the beauty that lies in this city... I loved it and I would definitely go back during Spring/Summer...Winter is an absolute no go!

From the beautiful architecture to the Christmas markets, to shopping on Princes Street (high street stores etc), to finding a cute little coffee store called the Chocolate Soup... Oh the list is endless. I just wish it hadn't snowed so much, I would have been able to do so much more. As I said before, I will definitely go back so I'll just pick up where I left off and continue with my tour of the city.
