Wednesday was our first full day in Edinburgh
. We got on a hop on hop of double decker bus to learn a bit more about the city and find out where we wanted to go. We got off by the castle and toured it which was a city itself! After the castle we went on a whisky tour. The tour was nice, but I really don't like whisky aside from a bottle of sweet whisky that Bud bought. The following day Matt and Bud left early to go to British Open. They had to check their cameras, so no pics but they had a great time. While they were at the tournament Jane and I took the kids shopping! We found some Christmas ornaments and a great little shop with jewelry, scarves and things of that sort. We dug through our change and spent a long time playing around in that store. For dinner we picked up fish and chips and had a picnic and let the kids run around outside. The following day it was time to leave. It was a cold rainy day so we stopped at a FREE discovery museum before we went to the boat. We waited for a LONG time to get on the boat but once on we again had a lot of fun. We came back to Amsterdam and packed Matt's bags because he was set to leave for Tokyo the next day. Bill and Lauren came back from their Italy trip that night. So, Matt left, Bill and Lauren left and Bud and Jane spent the last week of their trip touring around and spending time with the kids. It was a wonderful time and so nice to have family around!
