Day One in Edinburgh - 30/08/2019

Day started out with very windy weather and a little raining.
As I was in the kitchen making coffee, saw some movement in the back yard It was a Red fox. He was foraging in the yard. He hung around for a short time, then left through the hedgerow. Too dark to get a good photo.

We caught the bus to Waverly Place to catch the hop-on-hop-off bus. Got on and enjoyed an hour ride around the city with commentary.

Got off that one and had lunch, then walked around and decided to hop-on a different route that the same company offered.
That tour took an hour also so when we got off, we did some exploring and found a couple scarves and a few other things for our friends.
We also stopped by St. Giles Cathedral for a look-see.

After wandering for awhile, the rain started getting heavier so we decided to head back. Had a little trouble figuring out which bus to take, but it all worked out.
Got home, sat down and worked out what we will do the rest of the time in Edinburgh. Got tickets on-line for tomorrow and Sunday.
Had some supper and while Lilia was putting the dishes in the sink for me to wash, she spied the fox. He was passing through again. Then she saw another and that one followed the first one.
Raining harder now.
