So this morning I caught the train from Edinburgh to Aviemore, sat next to a really nice lady on the train who was heading to Perth for acupuncture for her arthritis. We had a good old chat and I learnt about things you can do as a kid when you are holidaying on the coast and different spots to look out for. She also showed me the rock you can see in a distance looking out across the water which is where the Firth of Fife meets the North Sea :)
The scenery on the train trip was very pretty as well, Missie def enjoyed the views though we still think the Cairngorms are tiny and not at all mountainey. On the train I was trying to put up a post on my last few days in Edinburgh being hectic as, so here is it summed up in a sentence or two. Very very busy last few days packing and catching up with friends, saw The Kelpies with Rach and enjoyed a final book group meeting plus drunk coffee and alcohol with various friends. Now we are enjoying saying we are traveling in the UK, no more of this working in the UK hehe.
When we arrived at Aviemore we found a nice place to have a rest and a read till we could check in at the hostel, then after checking in and ditching the heavy stuff we went for a wander in town and the visitors centre where and we now have our next day and a bit planned-ish :) then managed to wander out of town and into the countryside without realising it, go us. Nice to stretch the legs though.
