We don’t have class on Fridays at Oxford so that we are free to travel on the weekends. We left Oxford in the early evening on Thursday, boarding a train bound for Edinburgh. After a 5 hour ride, during which time we occupied ourselves by enjoying the serene landscapes and hills as they rolled by, we arrived in Edinburgh and checked into our hostel. It is called Castle Rock and we could not have chosen a better place to stay. Both the staff and facilities are outstanding and receive an unhesitating 5 stars from me. It was very late and we planned to rise early the next morning, so we ate a quick dinner at a nearby chippy (place that sells in Fish and Chips) and called it a night.
