Day 29
It is not surprising that travelling through Europe we’d come across castles and I suppose that having a young granddaughter who loves stories of princesses made us even more aware of them.
When we booked our holiday apartment in Edinburgh it was advertised as being near Edinburgh Castle. I thought that probably many apartments would he advertised as such and would have tiny views of the castle. I gave it no more thought.
Imagine our delight as we entered the gated community of our Edinburgh apartment to have the castle looming above us. In the late afternoon autumn sunlight the sight was both surreal and magical.
