Edinburgh Road Trip

Salam and hi,

Warning: this is a throwback. Last spring (April gitu), kami 4 orang decide untuk buat road trip ke Edinburgh from Leeds. Thankfully the weather was all nice and kereta kesayangan, Ford KA, kami yang comel tak buat ape-ape masalah. hehe. For this trip, I booked an accommodation from Agoda website (highly recommended. Murah!). We stayed at Princess Street Suites for 2 nights, it costs us only GBP 80. So, sorang bayar GBP 20 for 2 nights. Macam sewa hostel dah harga tapi dapat tempat 4 star. It was 2-bedroom apartment, a luxury apartment. Alhamdulillah rezeki.

1st Day

The duration from Leeds to Edinburgh takes about 3 and half hours. The scenery along the road trip were absolutely breath taking. Cantikkk sangat countryside. huhu. Sampai je Edin, kitorang tak buang masa, terus letak barang and jalan ke area sekitar hotel. Sebabkan hotel kitorang just in front of Edinburgh bridge and in the middle of the city, so best jugak la. First place kitorang pergi, Calton Hill.

Calton Hill ni antara one of the attractions. Tak sure pasal ape tapi cantik sangat view from the top. Sebab dah name pun hill kan, so kene la daki sikit-sikit hehe

Meriam

Lame gak kitorang pusing-pusing situ je, Then, sebab dah almost petang ke malam, kitorang cari tempat makan and balik menikmati accom kitorang yang best. haha tengok TV sambil makan2.

2nd Day

The next day, kitorang plan utk pergi ke Arthur's Seat. Another biggies kat Edinburgh jugak.

Lupe ni bangunan ape. some official government building

Another building yang comel with the cerobong fireplace yg comel

Then, kitorang jalan and lalu ke Princess Street Gardens, Scottish National Gallery untuk ke Edinburgh Castle. Kitorang tak masuk and spend time kat gallery sume sebab tak minat and made tak cutup. haha

Edinburgh Castle (wajib datang!)

Few miles from here, another interesting place to go is Camera Obscura. Masuk bayar 10 pounds for student. Mahal jugak tapi besstt sangat. Its all about illusion in here. Tak banyak amik gambar sebab have fun sangat dalam ni ;D A must go!

In Edinburgh kitorang cari tempat makan halal dengan guna apps Zabihah. A very useful apps. Serious kene download! free je! Harga makan boleh expect range from 6-10 pounds sorang sekali makan. Selalunye kene tau la yang kedai makan halal kat uk ni either fast food atau kedai nasi briyani (fevret hubby saye sbb kenyang =.=)

3rd Day

Kitorang menggunakan sepenuhnya kereta yang ada, so lepas checkout accom, kitorang bawak makanan yang beli kat Tesco untuk picnic kat North Berwick. Approx 40 minutes from Edinburgh city. Gorgeouss sangat tempat ni. Gambar kat tempat ni la yang jadi profile pic fb I untuk sekian lame. sebab lawa sangaaat. Jatuh hati...

Best sgt trip ni. After dah puas tahan sejuk kat pantai, kitorang pun bertolak balik ke Leeds. Tapi, dalam perjalanan balik tu, kami sempat lagi nak singgah Cumbria National Park ngn Scotland-England border yang dijumpai secara kebetulan. If rajin, sy tulis skit la pasal tempat ni hehe

That's it for now. Thanks to my hubby who drives, Azree and Auni, yang join trip, in making this trip a memorable one :)
