We headed out to Edinburgh Castle first thing after lunch (the morning was mainly driving). I must say I was very impressed with the city of Edinburgh. London is an old city, but many buildings are newer architecture. Not so with Edinburgh. There were very few modern buildings that we saw in the city.
Edinburgh Castle is on the small side compared to others we got to see, but no less beautiful. Students had about an hour and a half to explore the castle.
After our Castle visit, we headed down the Royal Mile and combined a scavenger hunt with shopping. Unfortunately, during a time when we were waiting for our directions on our next step of the day, students witnessed an elderly lady fall in the street. She was stepping down from the sidewalk and missed the last step. She fell and had a pretty severe head injury as a result. We quickly got our group away from the scene, but many were very upset by the incident.
We got back on the coach and headed to Glasgow.
