Day 23 - 25

Tuesday:
Packed up at the Castle. Said goodbye to Jamie. Started at the Archive & got readers tickets. We moved to the Budget Backpackers Hostel yesterday morning. Since this is not a gender specific hostel the three of us girls each paid £22 instead of £11 as the room had six beds: so we each had two beds.
Met a guy at breakfast from ARGENTINA and had a great conversation. I like how many foreigners are around here.

Wenesday:
This morning we moved over to the 4 bed room so we split the cost of 4 by 3.
We went to the archive and i found a cool diary notebook thing from the 1800`s I wanna publish. It is a cool story of someone visiting South Africa.
Had a nice dinner compliments of Sainsbury and I went to bed early!!!! YEAH!

Thursday:
We had to pack up again today. At breakfast I chatted with Mayumi (sp?) from Japan. We had a good discussion and I gave her BOM & a dvd. Archive reserch went well today. We went on a bus tour around edinburgh adn took lots of pics. The tour guide was from SA. We move into a B&B tonight. Tomorrow is my last day in Edinburgh! Aah.. i like this city.
