We woke up around 9am so that we could get our last day of Scotland started early. I forgot to mention that there are literally bagpipers EVERYWHERE. hahaha. I seriously LOVED it!!! I couldn't help but do a little river dance everytime I would hear it. Oh and if you're reading this, right now youtube the "Red hot chile pipers" <--not peppers... pipers! SOOOOO GOOOOOD!! haha. anyway, we woke up and decided to go the Edinburgh castle. It was amazing! I've never beein to a castle before so to go inside one and read all of the history, was awesome. We even got to see the crown, sceptor and sword from way back when. It was the real deal because the doors were safes in the room that held the jewels. I loved it. After the castle, we ate at an italian pizzaria (soo cheap) and had literally the best pizza ever. I ate so much. haha. We then caught our train ride and headed home.
I felt that this weekend trip to Scotland was a huge accomplishment (as lame as that might sound). I think it was because my 2 friends and I did everything ourselves with no help from anyone else. We bought our tickets, found our train and traveled to another country together. Found a hostel and navigated through a different country and had an amazing time while doing it. It was a spur of the moment decision and I think that is wat made the experience so much better. I couldn't thank God enough for keeping us safe! Scotland was definitly the highlight of my Eurotrip so far :)
