The Royal Yacht Britannia visit
... the castle road, along what is called the " royal mile " we came across another street entertainer, who was just fantastic and had a very captive audience. All this street entertainment took up most of our time there as well, a great way to spend some time in Edinburgh. Getting late by now and time to catch the bus back home. Lots more to discover tomorrow and taking a further look at Edinburgh.
Great day and looking forward very much to tomorrow.

Hope the weather has improved

On to Scotland!

The Odyssey begins.....
... and I was pleased to see that the passenger traffic at Passport control was light (there were two Officers working). The next part of the procedure was the Biometric checkpoint, something I’ve not encountered before. This consisted of standing in front of a Camera and having my photo taken (this may have been checked against a facial recognition database). I was provided with a small Bar Code sticker to keep with my Passport, which would be handed in to ...
