All packed up, ready to go
Can you spot Maxie's restaurant: just round the corner from our apartment
The finger of God is pointing to where we stayed in relation to the Castle
The rear of the Royal Mile from Princes Street Gardens
The Udderbelly, one of the Fringe venues. We didn't go in but it looked fascinating!.............................................................................................................
Sadly no diary was done today so just a few lines to close the blog.
The last morning was spent tidying up, carrying all our bags down five flights of stairs, and packing the cars. Anna and George left for West Yorkshire and Tine, Les & I wandered over to the Princes Street area whilst Jim parked the car again. We got a good view of the back of the Royal Mile and could picture what it must have looked like with all the tenement blocks built on the slope, down to the old Loch, now beautiful gardens, which was used for all the rubbish (and more!) from the Old Town. Perhaps that's why the land is so fertile!
We met Jim, Clare & Rob near the Udderbelly for a Guardian podcast, a very interesting experience, then bade our goodbyes to C&R and Edinburgh, and made our own way back to West Yorkshire and a good old Yorkshire take-away curry. At last!!!
