Edinburgh

We arrived during the festival rush in August. Somehow we still managed to get a place in a hostel that was affordable and were soon off to explore the city. One of the highlights is the view looking back from Arthur’s seat.

Just walking through the streets in the city center takes you past the different spots were people perform.

What one doesn’t see in the photo is the organisation “behind the scene”. The performance is timed and volunteers hold up signs with the remaining time.

What is also omnipresent is the castle up on its hill overlooking most of the city.
Sometimes it is so full of people that the city is almost disappearing behind the bustle in the streets. Our hostel was in a quieter zone close to this church.

It was nice to get out of the busy city center for a while and there it was also easier to prepare the last details for our flight to Berlin.
