Wednesday was a busy day. We got going a bit earlier than usual, checked out and went into central Dunblane for a wonderful breakfast at the Beech Tree Cafe.

The drive into central Edinburgh where we turned in the rental car took almost two hours instead of one hour as Google projected. The longer drive was due to traffic, filling up the car with diesel ($10.81 per gallon), a couple wrong turns and a detour. After driving a total 783 miles over ten days, we successfully returned the car.
Our room wasn’t ready so we played cards one last time while we waited. We went out exploring a bit then had coffee in a coffee shop across from the train station.


For dinner we went to an Indian restaurant.

Then we went to a traditional music concert. The concert was part of a music series called Tradfest that is happening in Edinburgh this week. The group was called The Furrow Collective.

After the concert we walked back to the hotel and said goodbye to Roger and Gayle who planned to leave the hotel at 5:30 am to start their voyage home.
