We had a brilliant week in the Beautiful city of Edinburgh, one of my favourite cities so far. We stayed with the awesome fun way cool friendly helpful executive hippy professional juggler/fire peformer Rob, and with such a beautiful place to stay (outisde the front door was a view straigh…

Well after having the most amazing year in Poland, something told me it was time move on. And again I had to say see you later to some great friends, which never gets any easier. Why I chose Edinburgh I have no idea. But every move I make something good always comes from it. One door closes another…

Finally, with a “slight” delay of couple of months, here’s a summary of my road trip to Scotland!   Didn’t plan on it when scheduling the trip, but huge crowds and the moods of festival met us in Edinburgh! Military Tattoo’s been running since 1950, when British Army decided …

My friend Christina and I went to Edinburgh for a few days. The city was great and the people were very helpful and nice. I loved going to the pubs. The weather was nice... well it was a bit windy.

Well, although I still can't really believe it has happened, my best friend, Tom, has gotten married to Iona. They got married in Ediburgh, the day was fantastic. This blog is just so you can all see the pics reall so I wont say too much...only that my best man speech ROCKED!!!!!!!!hahahaha

Well, im sitting here in my bed feeling pretty hungover after a great night out so I thought I'd share the experience and especially the pics... Was not actually going to go out last night, only decided on thursday. So on friday after work it was a mad rush to get all the stuff I needed for my cos…

Aysha and I went "shopping" again this afternoon... I don't have much money though, so I had to watch it. I did buy a plaid lamb's wool scarf, though. Come on. I had to. We also took a picture with a guy playing bagpipes in the street. I felt so touristy doing it, but whatever. The wind was int…

I ran across this great photo the other day from Remco (SomeRandomGuy) of the Edinburgh skyline taken from Holyrood Park.  I remember being there in 2005 and the way it looked then.  I decided that the slight cloud cover probably was to blame for the slightly dreary look and brought in a …

Time was running out to see the country so Darryn and I were trying desperately to cover as much as we could in the final few weekends before I had to return to NZ.I had already had a letter from the NZ Police asking me to confirm my return date, so they could confirm where I was to be posted. …

It is a sad day because everyone today is heading their own separate ways, I left first for Edinburgh, didn't have a chance to say my proper goodbyes last night or in the morning since i caught the first train to the airport :(((  It was great to travel, share laughs and unforge…

I went back to the Botanics, which I love.  There is alengthy review in oh - one of my other Edinburgh Blogs, I'll get you the link later.  But given that it was October and frozen, look how gorgeousa everything is! 

The Queen's Official residence in Scotland is how the sign reads at the entrance. Outside it was very nice and that included the Abbey ruins which are attached to the palace.  We were allowed pictures outside and I did my best to get as many goods one as possible. :) Unfortunately, again, no …

Well the whole day was spent in bed, watching Family Guy and movies and what-not. I figured I'd rest and relax in preparation for the celebrations in the evening. Phil's birthday and he was planning on going out with friends in the evening, dinner at Frankenstein's and Shanghai Club later on. After…

These pictures are of Princes Street Gardens.  It was warm enough to lie in the sun, whihc is wonderful.There isn't much else to tell on this trip - I had lunch with some friends and then came down with a tunny bug, which meant that I had to spend Monday lying in bed feeling sorry for myself.&…

A few days in the capital of the wild Scotland
