DAY 18 - REST DAY IN RAINY EDINBURGH!

EDINBURGH!

Today was rest day!! Lie in day and no walking except to the shops and back!! Not that i could buy much as anything i buy has to be carried!

Sadly however it has rained and poured ALL DAY!

I decided to visit my local David Lloyd and check out the facilities there but my nearest one was 3 buses away so it took nearly 1/2 hour to get 3 miles! Still, much quicker than walking!!

I made full use of the sauna, jacuzzi and steam rooms and then washed my hair and kindly got to borrow another lady's GHD's to straighten my hair ..... not that it made much difference by 2pm as the rain took care of that!

I made another visit to Starbucks and indulged in a bit of M & S foodhall goodies but other than that it has been a quiet day.  I wandered up to the Castle along the cobbled streets (plenty of Japanese tourists in their rain gear!) but it was so cloudy at the top of the hill, i could hardly see the top of the castle even!

Sorry not much else to report today!  Just nice to have a quiet day .... back to normal and regular mileage tomorrow, getting closer all the time to the boarder and  should be back in England in time for World Cup Fever!!!  Boooooo!! (Joking!)
