Day 49...Sunday, 13th March; Settling in Edinburgh for a few days...

Remember this is a blog & it updates backwards! Go to the bottom and find the first post if you want to get the gist of this in sequence...

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Moved from the rather funky Hostel to another one in an old Church building to-day.
The day started off cloudy & rainy but soon cleared & the sun popped out for a bit.
No snow to-day. Temp 4C but feels like 1C.
The guy who is managing this Hostel is an Aussie too! It seems they come, they see, they stay!

This Hostel is in an old Church building & has fabulous common areas.

Walking from funky Hostel to the other end of town, a couple of Klms, to the new Hostel...





Just how I'd immagined an old city to be...High walls & creepy buildings!




Can that be the Hostel under yonder spire?




More cute buildings on the way to the Hostel in West End, Edinburgh




Yup, this is it... and on a Sunday too!








My room is the one on the right front.




They just built about 20 boxes & put 6 bunks in each...120 beds all up & it was full on Sat night. 120 x 6.90 pounds min...not a bad income for off season!













Will post more tomorrow...am trying to get David's adapter to work, as I've been using other people's & now I have to either buy one or get his one to work!
