The rain today has to be seen to be believed. We're going to rest all day, there's no point trying to venture out (a) because of the weather and (b) because Paul needs to rest his legs & feet as we're in Edinburgh tomorrow.
We made it to the Falkirk Wheel on Wednesday. Very impressive piece of engineering but that's about as much as we can say on that!
Wednesday evening we went to Linlithgow Castle with Nigel and Roxanna for some Scottish dancing. Paul obviously didn't do any dancing but Nigel was very good and took me for a spin. Really enjoyed it, luckily the rain held off and it was a pleasant evening.
Yesterday we took a drive into the Trossachs which was very pretty. We stopped off at a wool mill where Paul bought himself a tartan blanket and I got a waxed jacket, fortuitously as it turns out seeing as it hasn't stopped raining since. We then drove to Loch Lomond and spent an hour driving along the banks looking for a restaurant with no success. We ended up turning around and driving all the way back to the first one we'd seen.
Drove past Stirling Castle on the way back, and the Wallace Monument. However now we've seen those I doubt we'll actually visit them.
So yes, Edinburgh tomorrow. Hopefully Paul will be up for it - walk to the station, train into the city, find the restaurant and then kill time in the afternoon before we head to the Castle for the Tattoo.
We'll see!
