(pronounced edin-burruh, for you noobs lol)
Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland, which is north of England. Edinburgh is a medieval city. Like the rest of the UK, the roads are not straight (frustrating as anything), and the buildings are generally brown and smooth edged, about 2 or 3 storeys high. Except for the office buildings ofc, but they're in another part of town.
Today Sarah, Georgie (Sarah's friend) and I flew to Edinburgh for the Fringe Festival, which is basically like the Comedy Festival in Melbourne, but with a combination of comedy, dance, music and drama. We flew with flybe ("fly-bee"), a budget airline. The flight from Southampton to Edinburgh was only about 50 minutes.
I'm staying with Uncle Mike's sister in her apartment in Edinburgh. Her name is Danielle, and she is lovely. She keeps asking if we need anything, and she keeps fussing over us. She bought us little cakes for afternoon tea (which were actually really nice and quite cheap, for what they were. If I were having people over for afternoon tea and ceebs baking, I would buy them. And that's saying something cos I love baking. Anyway.) Her apartment is done up really well.
So we ate cake, chilled, then went to our first show, Flawless.

It was really good, though, like all dance, I don't think I appreciate it to its full extent.
We even stayed for autographs at the end, so that we could have a little momento.
Then we had tapas in her lounge room for dinner. Yum.
Started watching Inception, but it lost my interest 40 minutes in, so I had a nice warm shower, and now I am so ready for bed.
