I Heart Edinburgh


If Glasgow was excellent, Edinburgh was magical. We caught the train from Glasgow, with all our gear in tow for an overnight stay in Edinburgh. Walking out of that station was nothing short of amazing. It's like walking back in time into a place so steeped in history it's impossible to take it all in. The old city looked like a painting with the castle looming at it's edges, the backdrop to a bustling city already in full swing for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. We were excited and ready for two days of fun and exploring together, me and my love.

Give it up for Glasgow


There's nothing like an impromptu trip to Scotland! Usually Levi and I are very planned with our holidays, we get flights at the best price, research accommodation down to the detail and line things all up just the way we like. But we had been saying for the last few years that if a really good work trip came up that I could tag along on we should take the opportunity and do it. So we did! Levi had a work trip to Scotland come up right after my 35th birthday, right in the height of summer and the perfect length of time for me to come along. What an amazing way to celebrate my birthday. There was no answer but yes and then getting to work to make it happen. Mum kindly agreed to mind the kids for the week, we booked my flights and then two weeks later we were off.
