Our first stop was the castle, however we didn't go inside. We were just outside enjoying the views and the sun as well as taking many photos. Another reason why we didn't go into the castle was that we were told that we would need an entire day to see all of it!
Afterwards, we went to a pulled pork roll shop called Oink which is very well known in Edinburgh. The traditional sauce to have with it is apple flavored however two of the students decided to have BBQ sauce.
At the end of that street we found a market where Nacho decided to buy a paella plate ironically! He said he enjoyed it a lot because he was missing Spanish food.
Later on we went to the cemetery where we saw Tom Riddel´s grave ( a famous Harry Potter character).
Before heading to our next stop we saw the rocket-man wings sprayed on a wall, so we obviously had to take some photos.. Sandra however, was to short for the wings.
Our next stop was the famous doggy statue ( Hachiko). People say its good luck to touch his nose!
Even though Nacho wanted to visit to the Scottish Parliament , we couldn´t go because it was closed.
As a result we decided to go to the National Scottish Museum where we saw things such as traditional clothes and instruments from different cultures.
After walking past the cathedral and Hume´s statue we were given two free hours to go shopping. The majority of the students went to a souvenir shop and then went to another Harry Potter shop. The group divided again; Alfredo, Mangel and Clara attempted to visit a famous a Chihuahua cafe that ended up being closed. Meanwhile the rest of the girls and Nacho decided to go shopping at Princes Street.
We were all exhausted by the end but it was definitely worth it!
