Bright Lights in the Big City

My weekend in Edinburgh passed by in a blur of food, cocktails, shopping, super comfy bedsheets, great company and lotsa walking.

Grabbing a train, checking into the Crowne Plaza on Royal Terrace and then hitting the city for a late lunch at Jamie's Italian...shopping at Harvey Nics and a cold cider in the sun, a little nap and off to Steak for some salad...jus' kiddin' - for a big Sirloin! Passing out in a comfy bed, later check-out, scrapped plans to go to the zoo, squirrels in Prince's St Gardens, the National Art Gallery, make-up purchasing, lunch and cocktails at the Hard Rock, double vodkas at the Black Rose Tavern and a very drunken and random train journey home.

Happy 9month anniversary (see here - http://imaginarycocktails.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/edinburgh-bound-en-route-toot-toot.html) to the mister and here's to an expensive and exhausting weekend together!
