So our stay in the cute bed and breakfast in scheffield was a miss. We got to the house around 11pm and it was locked up and no answer to the bell, so we drove around looking for a room. We eventually found one and it worked out great. We slept in and then headed for edinburgh.
On our way out os scheffield we stopped at mcdonalds for brunch...it is so fun to see the menu at mcy-d's in foreign countries. And check out the futuristic decor. The crispy sweet chili cucumber chicken wrap I had was delicious. I will say that this country sure seems to love their mayonnaise! It is on everything in very healthy portions. Oh well, when on Europe, right?!
We made a quick stop at the Scotland/England border for some pictures. Guess what, it was raining :)
We checked into our room in Edinburgh and took a stroll to the center of the tourist district. Below is a picture of our room, we ended up needing more time in Edinburg so we extended our stay by a night.
We took in the sights, this is one of the beautiful churches in the center of town, Giles cathedral. We visited inside too but I didn't buy a photo permit so I only took outside pictures.
This is a gorgeous view, in the rain, from one of the many Closes in Edinburgh. When the city was built the Closes were little alley ways to access the tenement buildings. The tower in the back is a huge monument to Sir Walter Scott.
It started really coming sown on us so we popped into a pup for dinner. I had the ham and eggs and Kyle got a salmon en crute, both we de Sioux but the hit of the meal was the fried Brie!
Another view of Kyle and the Scott museum in the back, we were exploring while waiting for our haunted tour to begin.
More rain :) what better place to stay dry than the pup!
Our haunted tour was great and we survived the long walk back to our room in the pouring rain. Great snooze before another fun day in Edinburg.
