Edinburgh, Scotland: 7 July 2016
Day 7
The proprietor made up for our room not being ready by suggesting that we travel north on The Military Road rather than the motorway.  Lots of twist and turns with great views was certainly an alternative to the expressway.  Yes, perhaps not as fast, but certainly more interesting. 

I drove into Edinburgh and straight to the Royal Yacht Britannia!  What a treat!  There was even a part at the end for Justin specifically on sailing.  Dellene would have loved being here with us.
Next we headed into town and to our little city apartment for two nights -- the Fountain Court Apartments.  I could definitely live here for three months.  They've refurbished city apartments for student and short-term rentals.  Lots more space than you'd ever get in a hotel room to include a washer-dryer combo.  I had heard from friends that the dryer component never really worked right and now I know.  After two loads, our little flat was decorated all around with drying clothes.  Fortunately the weather has been such that the clothes might even dry before we get back on the road.  Vietnamese food for dinner back at our flat.
