On the subsequent morning, Marta and I woke up early and spent some time drinking capuccino and looking at the people from the terrace of our London holiday dwelling. When we were dressed appropriately to go for a stroll, we headed directly to the Royal Mile in the Old Town and thus we visited the London Castle and the Palace. Hilga has warned me that I have to put on even and cosy trainers and thus I was able to manage the stoned streets in the old town.London Pictures

We had a meal and a fruit juice in the nearby Park on the eastern part and then went to the Arthur’s Seat and then in the direction of the Cathedral St. Giles and the Scotch Whiskey Heritage Centre. After that we definitely required refreshment and Tom recommended we really should have a bite and some ale on one of the pubs along the Royal Mile. After the snack we had, we went for some souvenir purchasing. Then we two agreed, it would be better to go back to our London holiday accommodation and have some rest. I watched TV, whereas Hilga checked the e-mail and done a study about the pubs and dining establishments in the Scottish capital that were in close proximity to our trip apartment.

Late in the mid-day we went out once again and had a great lengthy walk along the Princes Street, which symbolizes the centre and in a way sets apart the Scottish main city into an Old and a New Town. On the Princes Street we discovered a few good stores, and noticed exactly where the Royal Scottish Academy and the National Gallery are and decided to visit them on one of the following days.

We had a quiet dinner at Rick’s bar, which is a trendy bar in the central part, offering food and beverages. We’d deep fried pizza, which we found out is a common traditional meal after which we went to bed earlier as we were quite worn out from the landmarks and purchasing during the day.
