Mini Northern Tour -Part 3

Edinburgh.
Leaving Beadnell Bay was a bit tricky as several caravans had to be towed off as it had been so wet but John managed to keep going and got to the dry section. We had a steady journey to Edinburgh and arrived after about 2 hours. The site was not so pretty this time being on the Royal Showground next to the airport but did have the advantage of being close to the Park and Ride into Edinburgh and thus another city based break.

Several days were spent walking up and down the Royal Mile, watching street performers and solving clues for geocaches which again led us to some interesting places including a secluded garden and the grave of GreyFriars Bobby.

We had a nice afternoon walking up to Arthurs seat which gave wonderful views across the Firth of Forth.

We were also lucky enough to get tickets for the tattoo which was a good experience.
