I've seen the promised land and it is good!

I arrived in Edinburgh on schedule at half past 10am this morning. Exhausted from the travel I had a light lunch at at airport Cafe Nero before tackling the last few miles of my journey from Washington DC to old town Edinburgh. 

Revitalized after some much needed grub I hopped on a comfortable Airlink express shuttle downtown. 

For 3 pounds 50 pence I got more than my money's worth!

I arrived at my home for the night (a DLUX of ME recommendation) and was pleased to find a stunning view of Castle Rock from the hostel entrance. 

Wasting no time I joined a three hour city tour and took in many of the cities main attractions (along with a healthy heaping of history) on foot. 

After the tour there was just enough time for a quick happy hour pint before heading back to the hostel to clean up before dinner. 

So far this trip is batting 1000. Can't wait for the rest of the crew to arrive in the morning!
