Edinburgh, Scotland

We spent most of our time in Isle of Skye but after a few nights in Perth, we moved on to Edinburgh before heading back to Germany.

I found an amazing place on AirBnB in Edinburgh. It was a 3bedroom and parking! It also had an indoor pool. 

We had a few days to explore Edinburgh. Our first stop was the Edinburgh Castle. On our walk there we passed this lovely cathedral.

Our next stop was the Tartan Weaving Mill. This place was huge! It was 5 storeys and be sure to see every square inch of this place. The bottom floor has a bunch of the machines and it was fun seeing them make the fabrics.

After buying a few things at the Tartan Weaving Mill we continued on the Royal Mile.

I highly encourage hiking up to Arthur's Seat. It is a bit of a hike but the view is worth it. My parents stopped half way up to rest and enjoyed that view while Rob, Rand and I continued on to the top. 

On our way down from Arthur's Seat, we noticed a ton of people gathering around the. Palace of Holyroodhouse. The QUEEN was coming! We quickly got a spot and waited to get a glimpse of the Queen of England. 

The next day Rob and my dad went golfing and I went to the Edinburgh Zoo with Rand and my Mom. It was very easy to get to from our rental. We just hopped on a bus and the stop was right near the Zoo entrance. 

Rand really enjoyed the Dinosaur part of the zoo.

We enjoyed our time in Scotland and I would LOVE to go back. I would spend most of the time back in Isle of Skye and do more hiking. I loved that area. It was just so beautiful and serene.
