It's a happening place. The Fringe Festival is in full swing, and we are staying at a hotel (the most expensive one of the trip) right in the thick of it: street performers every 3 feet and hordes of people. Edinburgh is already a wonderful city with its bookends of Edinburgh Castle and Holyrood Palace, position on the Firth of Forth, hipster young folks, and old and majestic architecture. We are loving it and wish we had more time to explore and enjoy. We visited the castle and the Camera Obscura site, took in some street performances, but might call it a day. The kids (and truth be told, Philip and I too) are fatigued from all the travelling and sight-seeing. We're headed back to London via train tomorrow and will hopefully regenerate a bit there before heading off to Paris.
