Wild in Scotland!

Christmas spent in Scotland – and I couldn’t have asked for a better one for my first Christmas away from home.

But, let me not get carried away.

Leaving Brum I missed my train to Edinburgh by 2min – was my own fault though – leaving the flat a few minutes too late and forgetting that I had to get through a throng of people to reach the train station – thanks to the Christmas markets!

So, forking out another 32 quid for a train ticket – money I so had not budgeted on… I set off to Edinburgh – a 4 hour journey turned out be more like 5 due to a delay at York but made it to Edinburgh, got a little lost trying to find the right street the hostel was on – negotiating roads in the dark is always more difficult than during the day.

Spent 3 days in Edinburgh before my tour started – quite like the city.
