HIST Discovers Edinburgh

Since it’s quite hard to blog without being anti-social when travelling in a group, here’s just a little photo impression of yesterday, including a guided tour of the city and a visit to Edinburgh Castle.

A bunch of VUB historians to be at The City Cafe

The gang is complete now! After settling in at the hostel or apartment, we went to The City Cafe for dinner, then for a little walk and some drinks.

A fine start of this trip, I’d say.
