Day 102 Sunday 29th August:

Breakfast and then to find some wifi, a supermarket – been a few days since taking food on board! A very cold wind was blowing as we followed “Elizabeth Yates” footsteps from Fox Street, South Leith, to Edinburgh and to the Union Canal at Hermiston. Traffic in Edinburgh was horrendous – with road closures etc.
Had lunch by Bridge 12 at Hermiston – 100m from where EY changed the course of her life and then found herself in Oz! A very sad story – to be found elsewhere.

The day brightened as we took a guided tour of the House of Binns, overlooking the Firth of Forth.
Then drove south to Biggars for the night. Sun still shining.
