Day 15 to 17: EDINBURGH

We spent the next two days in Edinburgh. This was a great time for those feeling unwell to get a couple of days rest and recharge. The boys spent their time exploring the history of Edinburgh as well as taking the opportunity to do some shopping. I am sure there will be a lot of tartan inspired gifts handed out when the boys get back. Highlights included; touring Edinburgh Castle, one of the most exciting histroic sites in Western Europe and the site of many historical conflicts; exploring The National Museum of Scotland with its galleries of Natural History, Technology, Art, Design nd Fashion and Science. Hours were spent discovering treasures from around the world; and many other cultural and historical experiences.

On the second night the boys were put into teams of five for a Masterchef inspired competition. With a budget of 15 pounds and a list of criteria, the teams had to come up with a mains and dessert for their dinner that night. It was a close run competition and the boys had an enjoyable time testing their culinary skills.
