We walked around the Royal Mile checking out shops and whatnot, then we made our way to the Castle.
We did the castle tour, which is amazing! and then headed to do some SHOPPING!!! Along the way we had found a crepe-ary, which was great. We got bananas and nutella crepes!
By that time it was time to get some grub!! We started in the opposite direction of the Royal Mile down Leith st. This is another major road with some great restaurants and stuff down it. We stopped at the "Omni House" which is a shopping center, restaurant, cinema thing. lol. We got drinks at the bar inside and then found some dinner.
Then it was back to Stirling.
The next day I had to go to class....BOOO, but Dad and Janice checked out the Stirling Castle, which is much less militarily based than the Edinburgh Castle. They also went to our local mall, "The Thistles". lol.
After class we met up and went to a local pub called "The Birds and the Bees". It's a really cool restaurant/bar with REALLY good food. I brought a couple of friends to dinner and we had a great time.
The next day they were leaving from Edinburgh and in the morning, I had to go to class, but that is NOT what I wanted to do!!
But I had to.....
The plan was to go to Edinburgh after class and stay the night since they had an early flight out the next day.
So after class I met Dad and Janice at the train station and we headed out to Edinburgh.
The hotel we stayed at! |
This was their last night in Scotland and we were thinking about seeing a show or something. There was an operetta that we thought looked relatively interesting, but I got online and sampled some of the music..... and that would have been torture.....lol.
So we decided against it, but to go to dinner instead. We walked up the Royal Mile and found a restaurant to eat dinner.
After dinner we went back to the hotel, grabbed dessert from the hotel restaurant and got a movie on the hotel tv.
That was the perfect way to end their visit!!
I really miss my Dad and Janice, but I'm really glad that they got to come over and visit me. Not to mention they spoiled me rotten!! lol.
Love you guys!
