Photos Our bus was at 10:40 and our train in Scarborough left at 11:30, which was followed by a connection in York which took us to Edinburgh. It was a bit of shock as we rode quickly through the trees, hills, and country side that we had just previously walked rather slowly through. The fluffy, baaing sheep turned into lightning fast specks of white light as the rolling hills blurrily paced by. It was amazing to think it took us over 2 weeks to walk around 192 miles and now in the space of a couple of hours we could travel the many miles from Robin Hood’s Bay to Edinburgh. It was also a bit strange because we finally felt we were getting into good walking shape, and now we’re left with little walking to do. This has certainly been an amazing trip, with wonderful people and stunning scenery and I hate to see it all fly by so quickly. But alas, rooms have been book and there is a wedding we must attend in Belfast and life forever seems to move so quickly.
We arrived in Edinburgh, checked into our hostel, and then walked leisurely around the city. We took some pictures next to ceramic cows and drank free Pepsi Max beverages (as the pictures will attest), visited an old haunted cemetery and turned in early for bed in our 10 bed hostel room. The next day was met with a little bit more walking around the city before catching a plane from Edinburgh back to Belfast where we have spend the last four days.
We’ve only been through three countries (if Northern Ireland and Scoland are counted separately from England) and three weeks and yet it feels as if we’ve been away for much long. Well an update from our second bit of time in Belfast will be forthcoming, but for now, we must pack for Barcelona. Thanks for reading and we’ll post again soon. Until then……..
(Don’t forget to post some comments so we know who is actually reading this thing!)
