Edinburgh

Thursday, August 31st, 2017

The last leg of our trip was to Edinburgh (another new city for us); we were there both to hang out again with Safta and PopPop and to experience the Festival Fringe, the world’s largest arts festival.

Along with seeing some good shows (including a kind of bizarre, but impressive, Korean musical about monkeys and an amazing performance by Cirque Eloize), we explored the Royal Mile, visited the Edinburgh Castle and saw the street that inspired JK Rowling to write the Harry Potter books.

We hopped on a plane and headed home after three days there. And, after our earlier flight to Tel Aviv (which was a full four hours longer), the 11-hour flight home was no sweat!
