I went to Edinburgh last Wednesday with my friend. It took about 4hours to get there by train. We stayed in a cheap youth hostel near the Edinburgh castle. I coudn' sleep well cause the others were so noisy during the night. People played music and talked really loudly next door. We visted the Edinburgh castle the next morning. The castle is visited annually by about one million people. The oldest building in the castle is St.Margaret's chapel which has been standing there for more than 900 years. There were many museums in the castle, we walked around the castle, had lunch in a cafe there, and tried Scottish whisky in a gift shop which was really sweet and easy to drink.We spent about 5 hours there. Then we went to the new town took some pictures and had our dinner in a nice Italian restaurant. At the same time, I charged my digital camera in the restaurant, cause I found a plug just under our table. So we stayed there as long as we could to wait for my camera was charged completely, but we felt a bit bad cause there was a long queue of people outside the restaurant. So we ordered more after we finished our dishes. Then we went back to the old town and went back to the hostel at about 10:30. We visited the National Galarries of Scotland yesterday, had our lunch in Pizza Hut. We went to the portrait Galarry in the afternoon, bought some souvenirs... we were so tired but had a really great time in Edinburgh. We came back to Manchester at about 12:00am. Edinburgh was so different from Manchester, and the Scottish accent was quite interesting. Even money there looked different from England. I'd like to visit Glasgow next time because the Royal Scotish Academy of Music and Drama is there, my friend told me that the college looks quite similar to our college RNCM.
