My Legs Are Tired

I climbed so many hills today. A really nice couchsurfer from Edinburgh was taking some french kids around Edinburgh to hills in her car so they could see them all in one day...oh my god, my legs are tired. We did one hill in the city and then drove for about 20 minutes to an area called the Pentlands. We did one walk by a reservoir that ended in an underground home kept intact from 200 AD. Crazy. Then we went to a higher hill--and by hill I mean like over 1,500 feet high-- and climbed up to the top. The view was amazing, however, on the journey up I encouraged the group to go what looked like the shorter route...we walked like straight up. When we got down and looked at the map, we realized it was not a path at all. Oh well.

We ate lunch in a village where Robert Louis Stevenson vacationed. We went to a few other places, little towns and the church where this girls parents were married. Top 5 day in Edinburgh.

And I woke up before 10 AM today!
