When we had originally looked at this trip, our train ticket from London to Edinburgh was a reasonable 25 GBP. When we arrived at the train station -- it had jumped to a colossal 152.10 GBP. Seriously.
There is a big back story to the organization of this trip, I took care of accommodations and flights, Kent was to do the cars/trains.
I would've bought the cheap tickets, Kent decided to wait until the day of to rent/buy transportation.
This is where the opposites attract thing kicks in. I am too cheap to let go of a deal, Kent likes to fly by the seat of his pants.
Both of us completely different.
Me the planner.
Kent the freer spirit of the two of us.
I had a small heart attack at the cost of the tickets, but Kent, was not phased, this is how he rolls.
We arrived in Edinburgh, found our accommodations at the Best Western Bruntsfield. (The only reason we stayed at BWs were the gift cards I had accumulated....)
We decided to get out and see the city, so we went for a long walk, it wasn't really raining, but it was misty and foggy....enough to ruin a good hair day. :) Welcome to Scotland.
We fell in love with Edinburgh and I can see that we will more than likely return to Scotland. It was everything I had dreamed it would be and then a little more.
