Ok so today we moved to a new hostel. Had it not been for our previous living conditions I may have first noticed the beauty of the location, but considering the stressful day I have had it was lost on me. The first thing we see when we walk into the room, which we had high hopes for, was another tiny room with too many bunk beds shoved into it AND other girls clothes literally ALL OVER THE ROOM. After the day we've had the rage inside me is great. I really was looking forward to a room with more privacy and more room, as was advertised. I have to admit though looking outside the rage does subside. It's really pretty, and on the water. I think that tomorrow I am going to rent a bike and ride around the trails. Looking back on it, it really isn't all that bad, I think that my mood was spoiled when 5 minutes before the van (advertised as a bus) came to pick us up it started to POUR, buckets. On top of that we could barely fit our cases in the van.
I shouldn't complain yesterday was a good day. We slept in (10 o'clock has become really late for us). Then we took a hop on hop off bus tour around Edinburgh to get more oriented with the city, and then we took a look around the National Art Gallery, which was free!!! They were close to closing so we didn't get the full appreciation, and I know we'll be back.
Oh and the best news is that we finally got our cellphones to work so we called home!!!
That's all for now that I can remember.
