I arrived in the Scottish capital in the late afternoon last Thursday for a long weekend break and went without delay to my Edinburgh getaway holiday apartment. I intended to see a good friend, but her air travel was scheduled for a later hour, so I had free time for a shower and some relaxation opposite the TV set. When my friend finally came, she placed her suitcases in her room and we did not waste a minute but rushed out-of-doors to explore the city.
Just before my trip I tried to make a research about which might be the nicest pubs in Edinburgh, but was really confused. There were numerous comments and so many testimonials by travellers, that I decided we’ll visit the pubs close to our vacation apartment in Edinburgh and attempt to follow our intuition. We paid an appointment to the Last Drop Pub, since we were intrigued by its extended history, then we had some beers at the Sandy Bell’s Pub where we listened to some folk music.
After that we headed towards the Portobello area that was not near our holiday flat in Edinburgh but was a fascinating area as we had been told. We stood for an hour ay the Malt and Hops Pub where the beer range was awesome, then we went to the Carriers Quarters where we were offered the best beer for the night.
We were in a excellent mood and we met some new friends, who were thrilled to find out about our countries and home towns and we exchanged our emails to keep in contact one back at home. The time was flying and therefore Maria and me and we decided to go back to our Edinburgh lodging and get a good sleep, as we had really a lengthy plan for the next few days.
