SCOTLAND
It was already in the month of February and
still couldn't decide me to that part of the European continent could go to
enjoy a few days of vacation, had the need to escape for a few days in the city
and wanted to find a place which cover everything;
-Nature,
-Beauty,
-History,
-Interesting people,
For several days I was shuffling my chances
and decided to finally and after many headaches do not go to Scotland.
Scotland is a country with a lot of history
and was a very coveted land so it has rather turbulent chapters, it was Center
of many battles and there that there are many heroes of battles and
exist through out your true beauty of castles, and many remains of what were
their strengths and ancient churches. Its territory predominantly green because
of the large amount of rain during most of the year, luckily we had Fortune
during the 12 days that lasted my visit we had a phenomenal time.
I think I should clarify because I referred to
"we". Initially I planned my trip to do it alone, and as I was
reporting more and more of the places I wanted to visit me did account it would
be almost impossible to do so if it was not in the car, would have to rent one
to be able to mobilize point to point since Scotland doesn't have a good system
of transportation between town and city,what would come later to give me is
that it also has a network of roads in good condition well I have to say, there
are no roads in many places.
A few days before my departure I commented it
with some friends who joined the trip project, without hesitation and 72 hours
before my departure now were 5, the perfect number to make a trip well
accompanied and economic, which was a great joy. Clear you assaulted me my
doubts because whenever you make a journey deep and 3 days is not the same and
do it alone with other people who may have different reasons for travel,
different tastes of to see and visit, but was lucky to have the company of what
would be the perfect travel
-Natalia,
-Albert,
-José Antonio,
-Emmanuel, and
-I
We decided that our meeting point would be
Edinburgh since all came from different places, Emmanuel and Albert came from
Liverpool, José Antonio and Natalia from London. I had arrived the night before
from Madrid, so it gave me time to give me an idea of the city that I get to
fall in love.
That afternoon prior to our meeting, since I
arrived at Edinburgh airport and from the beginning I gave is that the people
are very friendly, requests and smiling, virtues that sometimes is
very difficult to find in larger cities. The city received me with rain, was an
afternoon quite grey and fortunately at the last minute I decided to take a
jacket with me was what saved me from dying the days of hypothermia because
there is a very large temperature with Madrid difference, and not only the
temperature is what changes between Spain and Scotland.
From the first minute entering the city on the
bus that brought me from the airport fell in love with me this city's
neo-classical style, and compared as one of the cities most beautiful cities in
Europe and the most beautiful in all of the United Kingdom.
I chose to stay in a hostel located in one of
the largest and most attractive streets of Edinburgh called 'Royal Mile'
(transl. golden mile) where its huge buildings, all Brown impressed me
thatrainy afternoon. I devoted myself to a little tour of the city, without
wanting to see it all in a moment because it would devote you 3 full days at
the end of my trip to Scotland. There were certainly not a single corner
without that I fall in love more and more this city.
I'll have to make a new chapter just to
Edinburgh because really it is worth having a section for this special city
So for the moment I cover me from the rain and
go to rest, that it has been a busy but productive day and I am happy with it
We continue to see us...
