Today we were still not feeling too well. We would have loved to have stayed curled up in bed today, but no time!
We walked down to Waverly Station to board the Hop on Hop off Tour bus. We enjoyed a tour of Edinburgh and then we went to see "the Castle'. The castle was very interesting. We did the self-guided tour and used the headphones with pre-taped info. It was very informative and we were still there at 1pm when the timing cannon was fired. Steve was very quick and caught it all on camera. After a very interesting 4 hours at the castle we got back on the bus and saw more of the city sights. It was another great day. We were very tired when we got back and it was a struggle to climb the 80 stairs to our room. We enjoyed a quiet and early night tonight.
