From Skye back to Edinburgh




After thoroughly enjoying our time exploring the Isle of Skye we gradually made our way back to Edinburgh. It was a fairly quiet but relaxing few days. A few points…

  • Enjoyed driving through some very small, old, and quaint Scottish villages
  • May have added to the rich history of sightings at Loch Ness
  • Monique enjoyed using the beautifully clean and well equipped kitchen at the Caputh Hostel
  • Saw Stirling Castle which proved to be a great insight into the extravagance and opulence of Medieval life. Also while at Stirling Castle, we randomly bumped into Monique’s sister-in-law’s cousins. What a small world!
  • Took a very interesting tour through ‘Mary King’s Close’ – a series of underground laneways that were a thriving part of Edinburgh in the 1700s, but have since been built over

This concludes the Scotland leg of our journey. Again, we have been extremely lucky with weather with only one or two days of rain. Great times.

Next stop London.
