edinburgh

 
Hannah and I went to Edinburgh for one night on the 20th of August.  Yes, I know it was right before our dissertation deadline, but we only live once and I didn't want to miss an opportunity to go to the Festival with Hannah!!!  By the time I go to Edinburgh on the 10th of Sep, the Festival will be over, so it was a good chance for me too.

The Festival was great just like last summer.  We saw the Soweto Gospel Singers from South Africa, and a Scottish contemporary dance group.  I really enjoyed both of them, although the contemporary dance was kind of, well, weird.  I didn't really understand it, but then again, maybe not all art are meant to be understood.  

The next day we walked around the city avoiding the crowd and went up Calton Hill which felt really good.  I will definitely come here again once I start living in Edinburgh.

I'll miss london when I leave, but I want to make the most of the time I will spend in Edinburgh this year.  I want to travel around Scotland!  and maybe find myself a scottish boy???  hehehe
