From Perth to Edinburgh, and around, and back again

Ocean Terminal

As we get closer to that sad time when we have to leave Edinburgh :( , we're trying to pack as much into our time as we can. Last Friday we went to Ocean Terminal, which is located in the north of the city and encompasses the port part of Edinburgh, a massive shopping centre, and the Royal Yacht Britannia.

We left pretty early in the morning, catching two buses to get to the place. As soon as we got there, we found the shops and as usual, the girls were in their element. Duy wasn't with us because he was still in Livingston, but we were to catch up with him very soon (his housemate was a lazy slob and he decided to shift out and live with us).


We shopped and shopped, and to Dino and my dismay, we shopped some more. Eventually we got onto the deck of the Brittania and checked out the various Royal whatevers there were there. It all seemed pretty boring to be quite honest, and the only real highlight was probably seeing the bed that Prince Charles and Di used on their honeymoon. Oo-er.

There's a few more stories involving wombats and monkeys that Sa might elaborate on too. Unless you all beg for me to tell you.

We finished up on the boat and then had another Asian lunch. We ate out of plates with knives and forks. Enough said.

Then we shopped some more.

On our return to the flat, we were ambushed by a snoring Duy, who had managed to find his way back home after his sojourn in Livingston.
