Edinburgh for a day! :)

We had one day to spend in the lovely Scottish capital city of Edinburgh! It was so easy to get there from Glasgow! It was a direct trip from Glasgow Queen St Station to Edinburgh Waverly Station. The trip lasted about 45-50 minutes each way. And let me just say that Edinburgh is BEAUTIFUL! There is so much to see and do! Guess what we did? If you guessed Hop on Hop off tour then you are correct! Maybe I should get paid to advertise for them! Ha! But seriously.... The tour was great and we decided to add a tour of Edinburgh Castle, too!

The castle. Oh the castle. It definitely needs its own paragraph. Ok so we wanted to see the Scottish Crown Jewels so we got talked into going to the castle. There were approximately 52 million people also excited about the Crown Jewels, I suppose, because it was straight up CRAZY! We could barely walk an inch an hour!! Ha! It was crowded, guys. So crowded that I probably wouldn’t recommend it. The castle is gorgeous on the outside so you should probably settle for a photo of that! The Crown Jewels were underwhelming in a BIG way but I have no pictures to prove it because photography was not allowed. :( So the moral of the story is that you should save your 17 pounds. You’re welcome.

We spent the rest of the day walking around the city, taking lots of pictures (to follow), and doing some shopping! It was a great way to end our Scottish adventure!
