Next leg of the journey started with a train. Loved the Hogwarts stuff at the train station. It was a little confusing at first, but we figured it out. We got good at figuring stuff out. It was about a three-hour ride from London to Edinburgh. Our seats were facing backwards, and I was in the aisle, so I didn't see much out the window. I was hoping to see the funny sheep I saw last time, but I was denied.
Edinburgh was one of those quick trips. Basically, just a stopping point on the journey. It is where my biggest adventure started though. We rented a car. And I drove it. Yes, wrong side of the car, on the wrong side of the road, going the wrong way on roundabouts. I am happy to report that I survived it and it was not as bad as I made it out to be in my mind. It helped having a navigator who helped watch for things. I only hit two curbs a bit.
We rented the car so we could do some stops around Stirling. It is hard to do that when you are on a train or a bus. So, we saw the Kelpies, saw the Wallace Monument (but not up close as they did not have a shuttle driver that day), and the Stirling Castle.
Then I finished the drive to Glasgow.
