Arrived Edinburgh. What a fantastic tourist town!
This is my first trip to the ancestral homeland. My first trip.
Accommodation is booked out for the Fringe Festival.
I’m off to the West Highland Way, the most popular long hike in the British Isles. Planning on a climb of Big Ben Nevis to finish that route.
Will be offline for a few days.
Don’t use the term “hiking” in Scotland. Here it’s hillwalking.
