Bus from airport 

Jay and I woke up at 5 am to catch the bus 214 at Pratt road from Camden town.
Our bus waited at Old Street Station at 6.m. to get to the airport at 7.m.. The flight to Edinburgh took 1hour so we arrived when it was 1p.m. in Edinburg. The boss was friendly to us. However, we were a bit upset by the news that the wifi is limited for 2 hours per person for 2nights stay and only to one device.
We were directed to the room with alphabet G and my bed named Ginger and Jay's one was goofball. 
After checked in the princes backpack hostel, we straight away departed to the Edinburgh castle. 
We decided not to use any public transport for 3 days so we can have a better view of the city. The buildings have its antique and traditional style.

On the way we passed by the national gallery, there are so much painting by different painter, some about Jesus and some on the greek mythology. There are lot of styles such as Italian, Gothic, Reenaissance and so on.
Also, we visited the Princes street garden, Outlook Tower, Giles catedral,
Mary king close, Parliment and carlin park
