1. River Festival - Boats, ships, free shuttle bus, river...
2. Loch Lomond - tradisional scottish highland games + beautiful scenary
3. Edinburgh - CASTLES + ROSLYN CHAPEL (knew this place through Dan Brown)
These 3 choices sounds equally attractive to me but still a desicion is yet to be made. Why cant's they just happen in different times where i can participate in all of them? i knew it was impossible, just... Finally, a call from L finally made up my mind. The attractive Roslyn Chapel.. a place with history, a place known to be filled with amazing arts, a place where the holy grail is claimed to be...
First thing to do when i woke up ~ prepared the egg buttered and chicken roll sanwhiches + ginger ale for lunch and rushing off to the train station to catch up with the train at 8.00 a.m.
It was so sweet of V Co by helping us to take this group photo after being rejected by the help of a guard in the train station.
Just cant stop camwhoring around the city when we reached after 45 minutes of journey.. the scenary on the way was amazing.. green grass + blue sky.
Finding way through the castle by walking towards the building that we saw from far..
Despite the heavy downpour when we were to embark on the expedition around the castle which we have paid 12 pounds for, it did not dampen our spirits of exploring nor the others. The queue for ticket to entry was long,tourist can be seen from around the world. Held with an umbrealla, bearing with the strong cold wind and rain, we visited..
Rosslyn Chapel was our next stop. I was kind of worried when we didnt manage to catch up with the bus as it will be closed at 5 p.m. With numerous attempts of asking and running around the city, we finally found the bus with the number 15.. Really glad that we could make it at last..
Tired, hungry.. we headed back to Edingburgh city. Heard from friends that Mussel Inn served delicious and fresh mussels with free flowing bread.. Tempted by the food shown in the menu outside of the restaurant and eager for the rest that we need after a long walk, we headed into this place with much expectations.. The waiter was nice to offer a place for us in this crowded little restaurant. This is the first time i ever tasted a mussel cooked in this way.. Butter was thick with the crispy hot baguette, dipping in the sos with white wine.... Delicious...
It was a wonderful experience and company... Thanks Kelvin, Lydia, Fiona, Yi Lyn and V Co for the good time in Edinburgh...
