The Strand. Bond St. Old Kent Rd. We could recite every property in the order they were on the board. Until my recent 55th birthday however, these were just that – names on a gameboard. I’d never been to the UK, and decided it was time to experience these famous places for real.
As the leaves in our neighbourhood began to display their autumnal splendour, my wife and I decided to treat our daughter and granddaughters [ 10 and 8] to a winter holiday.
Due to Air New Zealand’s pernicious pricing during school holidays, the thoughts of Fiji/Samoa/Rarotonga were quickly dispelled. We happened upon a 9-day Pacific cruise visiting 4 islands. Noumea, Lifou, Vanuatu and Mystery Island. Along with 4 days at sea.
Arriving in Edinburgh, and after checking into our fabulous central accommodation., the Princes Street Suites - , we took an easy walk to Royal Mile.
Royal Mile, a World Heritage site, is a succession of streets in the heart of the Old Town Edinburgh, with Edinburgh Castle at its head and the Palace of Holyroodhouse at its foot. Its name comes from its tradition as a processional route for kings and queens for the last 500 years.
