Edinburgh Castle |
After our guided tour we were free to wander the city on our own. Many of us made purchases to take home along Royal Mile from shortbread and sweaters to magnets and whiskey. We saw the building that inspires JK Rowling’s famous Hogwarts School of Wizardry. Many of us also found our way to Victoria Street which was the inspiration for. Diagon Alley in the Harry Potter series.
With the steep climb at Edinburgh Castle and along the road many of us would be hard pressed not say, 'I’m fair puckled! – I’m short of breath.
Once again our guide offered some suggestions for dinner. Some of the groups went for a delicious Italian dinner while another group went to The Dome and others enjoyed the local pub flare.
Groups of Stonehill travelers could be found in the bar following dinner enjoying each other's company after dinner and sharing their adventures of the day. While another group was out in the dark of the night on a ghost tour. Can't wait to hear about their adventures and learn which ghosts of the past they may have encountered!
