it was a hurry morning... our journey to Edinburgh would begin at 7:45am, but we got our ass ready only by 7:25am!! then we run all the way to train station in 15 mins, tis is 1st time in my life that i need to run all the way to catch a train haha. Edinburgh is such a nice city, it is voted the most beautiful city in UK, but interesting places to visit is not as much as Rome. both cities r nice but they hav their own style.

lets c the picture on the right, tis is the busiest street in Edinburgh, Princess Street, a shopping sanctuary as well, just like oxford street in london-busy and all branded goods r sold here.




It was a cold day as well, both of us start shivering once we get out of the train, it was around 0 to 1 celcius oni. see? everythg around us are covered by ice. it was around 12 somethg in the afternoon with strong sunshines, but those ice just wont melt. if u can notice it, there is a pool behind us, the water level is quite shallow and it is covered with a layer of ice! can u imagine how cold is it? we walk and walk and walk with great speed, coz we r trying to finish all places of interest b4 the sun set. then when we get back to our starting point, Princess Street, it was only 1:30pm haha. i got no idea y is it still so early, i tot it shd b around 3 somethg at least. we felt like "wtf?" coz our train back to aberdeen is oni at 6:30pm! how shd we pass the 5 hours? omg... wat we did was, we went into almost all shops like zara, topshop, and also few complexes to see watches, shirts, coats, shoes and accessories. yeah, if u can notice it, we din go into any gift shop after 1:30pm. it seems to be the same like london, same UK style, mayb wat's diff is the scottish skirt.

after we r back to aberdeen, we went to casino as well after our dinner. initially, we planned to go there for 2 hours oni, but u know wat? we stayed there until 4:30 am, it was 2 and a half hours extra compared to our estimate time! tis shd b the power of casino, u wont know how long have u been there. somethg lucky is, both of us din lose a single cent after 4 and a half hours' gamble! well, it is really lucky tat we lost 50 pounds in total in the beginning but we managed to win all back at last! god bless us...
