Last weekend we went to Edinburgh Scotland for a quick 3 day get-away. We talked about driving but it's over 500 miles and that was just to far for only 3 days. So we took an early AM flight Friday and came home late Sunday night.
After arriving early on Friday we checked in to the Sheraton Spa and resort, had lunch at a local pub then headed to Edinburgh castle. It was sunny out too!! The castle is quite large but not really "castle like" imo. None the less, it was a great one to see and the overall presentation was very good. As for Scotland, I found it to be much more relaxed than London. Almost like comparing Bellingham to Seattle (sort of...). The architecture and especially the stone work is nothing short of amazing. That evening we had a true "Scotish" meal (Bella even had Haggis for dinner). If you don't know what haggis is, look it up. I wouldn't touch the stuff!!
Bella spent the next morning at the spa while Jasmyn and I walked around town and took photos and just hung out. Sunday, I spent the day at the spa: it was awesome! Over all a great, short, trip!
