Edinburgh Castle

The next day was one of endless driving, with a short stop at Edinburgh Castle, where we tried some trick phototography!











Our hope was to make it to Shefield for dinner, where we were to meet Jamie Shin-Chuan, our sweetest friend from Taiwan who was visiting her beau.We all had Italian dinner, and Ian told us how he is going to help save the world by creating a better battery (allowing efficient solar, wind, and car power storage!) It was so wonderfully normal to find a friend who we could just go eat dumplings and drink mango juice with in Taiwan, and now wander the streets in England.




There was an amazing drive over the moors, that reminded us of mysterious books - though these weren't in Yorkshire, they were still impressive.

We ended up in a roadside hotel that, as we found out the next day, was only ten miles away from Sherwood Forest. We were in Nottinghamshire!
