I happened to find a free walking tour as I was walking up the Royal Mile. They were about to start, so I decided to join in. The tour guide, Paula, was from the United States, but her mother is Scottish and her father is Puerto Rican. She gave us a LOT of information and did a wonderful job guiding us. We didn't get to see as many things as I had hoped for, but I learned a lot which was great. I met some nice girls on the tour so we decided to go to the castle and walk up Arthur's seat together. From all the five days I was in Scotland, it only rained for an hour on the day of the walking tour. The weather was really really great. The day of the walking tour was such a great day!
