The Fringe Celebration

We had a couple of additional days in the Scottish main city and were really happy that they coincided with the start of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Mark was thrilled that almost all of the alternative shows were to be organized in the proximity of our Edinburgh holiday apartment and we in fact managed to see several of them.

To be in the Scottish main city when the largest arts festival on the planet begins was really exciting and we actually noticed exactly how the population grew in number when all the performers and guests came to get pleasure from the event! The town was packed with college students, thrilled to present on stage what they are efficient at.

Edinburgh Fringe Festival

Mark and I loved the open-air street art fair along the Royal Mile and a few free of charge shows also. Mark appreciated most a play we saw, whilst I enjoyed best a dance theatre. During the initial night of the event we had a dinner and then went to a good club where we went to a unique night show.

On the last day of our trip in the Scottish main city, we woke up early, packed our suitcases to be prepared and left it in our Edinburgh residential home, and then we went to see 2 comedies that we really had fun with.

Town of Edinburgh

There after we still had time and money to had a salad and some tasty meal at the Hendersons bar, which was well-liked among the non-meat eaters. The atmosphere was fantastic and we were happy that we really had the possibility to see the main landmarks of the Scottish capital and also to see a few of the Fringe Festival activities.

Henderson's Wharf Inn

I bought a lot of desserts and small souvenirs for my colleagues at the office, while Mark bought souvenirs for our two families. Then we went straight to our Edinburgh lodging, grab the baggage and took a cab to the airport.
