summer vacation part one...

...Edinburgh! After a looong long long day of travel yesterday and connecting multiple flights, we made it to Edinburgh, Scotland this afternoon! Now, we'll see more of Scotland in the next few days (posts to follow) but our first leg of the trip was spending the day in this city. But let me just say-this country is beautiful. Dan and I got to our hotel around 2:15 and went to explore. We went to the Edinburgh Castle and I was blown away.


You walk inside of this place and then it's like you're inside a mini village. Lots to see and the views were breathtaking. Sidenote to any Harry Potter fans-some of the side roads in this city reminded us so much of Hogsmeade!



Apparently, the castle has something to do with the Olympics, hence the bleachers.

We have tons of pictures that we'll be posting later, but I just wanted to give y'all an update! Now it's time to rest up for part two of Scotland tomorrow. We're hopping on the train and heading to the Highlands for three days-Inverness here we come!
