Hello everyone!
So we took the night train from London to Scotland last night. It was a 7 hour ride - so we got a half decent nights sleep. I have to say it... Edinburgh is sooo much better than London. When we first got off the train there was a nice fog covering the peaks of endless beautiful, towering buildings. We stayed in Old Town (just a small part of the city) all day - and as you'd expect every building is old and beautiful. We wandered around Edniburgh for 3 hours waiting for the restaurants to open up for breakfast... Alex had Haggis for breakfast, I chickened out and went for the equally-cool-and-adventurous scrambled eggs! We spent some time looking around St. Giles Cathedral (so beautiful) and then learnt all about Scotland's history at the Museum of Scotland. We're going to head out to a pub now and have a few pints of some local beer... Hopefully tomorrow we'll be able to see Edinburgh Castle.
We miss you all now! I told you it'd come with time!
Love,
Tamara & Alex

We are having way more fun than you
Hi Alex and Tamara, Today we stripped off about half of the wallpaper in the bathroom and i'm going to paint the garbage bin tonight when it cools off (32 deg C) so drink a pint for us. Francine says hello. Enjoy.
