You'll have to forgive me for this slightly belated blog post, I have been insanely busy over here. Friday February 18th, Sam, my brother, arrived from Canada to enjoy his study break in Britain. It was so great having him here! Oddly enough, underneath my bed, is stacked an identical bed with a mattress and everything! So, despite cramped living quarter, Samwise and I each had a bed and were ready to take on Edinburgh.
Later that night, our cousins, who live in London, arrived with two of their friends from home. We Canadians came, we saw, we conquered. All the way. It was great to get to show off my city. We saw some of the nightlife, including my personal favorite: the big cheese. Its run in the student center on campus every Saturday night and it essentially plays really cheesy pop music from the past couple of decades. Its all pop ballads and all that. It is such a good time!
During the day on Saturday, we climbed up to the peak of Arthur's Seat, the small mountain steps from my residence, we went to the oldest pub in Edinburgh, the Sheep's Head, that is nestled at the bottom of the mountain.
For dinner, Samwise impressively cooked gluten-free pizza for our 12 dinner guests. He's a dream.
Yah, the path may have been technically closed for the winter... Oops
