My Funky Little Diary : Choo Choo the Jacobite train

Dear readers, How do I start? Oh, yes...Well, I actually did  discover Scotland and I was super ready.... By the way, this blog is not sponsored; I only would like to recommend a few sites.  So, it all started one morning. I wanted to do something during winter break and I was so  bored. I knew I've only arrived in Scotland a few months ago, and off course I haven't been everywhere. I thought that I should take advantage of my winter break to travel around Scotland and so I did. I went on a site:  https://discoverscotlandtours.com/   I booked a ticket for me on the Jacobite express and was excited... I went to the address shown to me from the site where the bus will stop and it was early in the morning-the sky was still dark.  Finally, I was inside the bus and was off to go to Loch Lomond.

My Funky Little Diary: Edinburgh

Dear readers This trip has been such a great opportunity; travelling to Edinburgh in Scotland is such a dream. Especially all what I did during my one day visit. Hope to go there again soon 💗. But I guess, I should start from the beginning... Well, Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland and it is located near Glasgow, which is also a part of Scotland. So they're like neighbors, precisely. There are about 5 million people living in Scotland and about 500 people live in Edinburgh. WOW!! Bet it blew your minds, eh?  Anyway, I would be honored to show you all the things I did at Edinburgh that time: I woke up early in the morning to ride an early train-it only took about 1 to 2 hours to go to Edinburgh by train. Once I arrived at Waverly Station, I turned left and ended up on a huge bridge. I didn't know where to go, but was lucky enough to find a Hop On & Off bus near the bus stop in front of me. I paid the ticket and went on the bus with the earphones given to me...
