It was London that another marathon was held, and the Tower Bridge was prohibited from passing vehicles. The crowds of people filling the road with whistles and colorful publicity materials. The Tower Bridge did not have a strong color because of its ancient history, but instead exuded a soft beige and a light light blue in the steel part.

Whenever contestants pass by, they will hear applause and whistle in the crowd. Followers from far to near and across the tower bridge, and they will be very impressed by the British people's enthusiasm for sports and the straightforward positive energy.

On the other side of the Tower Bridge is the Tower of London. There are various buildings in the castle, and you can also see sentries standing guard. Every time you arrive at the point, a person will raise his gun and travel back and forth in an exaggerated way, and then return to the booth to continue standing guard.

The Tower of London is a list of golden scepters used for the royal ceremony, various crowns, various gemstones and various colors of velvet, shining brightly, and also many of these strongly decorative and huge gold tableware, which are extremely delicate and luxurious.

There is a couple in the hotel who always meet them during breakfast. They were taciturn in the first few days, but from the tone of their speech, they could hear that they were from all over the world. When Yunluo was about to leave, they probably would have completed their trip to England. One morning, I saw my uncle happily asked Yunluo and Koala where they would go next stop.

After hearing that Yunluo would go to Scotland, my uncle and aunt excitedly told Yunluo Koala that their daughter was in college in Edinburgh. They just returned from Edinburgh this time and their daughter arranged a trip to Scotland for them. They participated in a three-day tour of Angel Island. My uncle kept emphasizing Yunluo the beauty of Angel Island and the simplicity and enthusiasm of the Scottish people.

He said bluntly that in comparison, Scotland is much more enthusiastic and simple. Facts have proved that the people in Scotland and Edinburgh are indeed the most polite, simple, and most civilized and lovely people Yunluo has ever encountered. In this city with a very high dimension, at first glance, Yunluo felt as if he had entered another world, a parallel world of different latitudes.

I heard that train travel is very comfortable for many Europeans, and sometimes even the comfort level is much higher than that of airplanes. British trains are completely different from domestic trains. Yunluo once saw a post describing that British trains are equivalent to domestic green-skinned cars. Yunluo thought that perhaps such cars can only be seen in some very short and remote stations.

In fact, most of the UK has covered high-speed railways. If you buy tickets one and a half months in advance, you can get a considerable discount. Sometimes the prices of some first-class cabins are even more favorable than the prices of other economy classes.

The first class cabin of British trains not only has charging sockets, spacious and comfortable seats, but also has dining cars that come to give away snacks and drinks from time to time. The comfort level is much higher than that of the same-class trains in China.

The train passed through beautiful towns in the suburbs of London. We headed north all the way, and the green grass along the way was refreshing. As the train swam in this boundless green, it was like a galloping snake, in a boundless world without square, flat, and straight lines.

The small slopes and mountains in the distance are all green arcs, overlapping and staggering each other, and the white sheep dots make the grass more charming.

Every time you arrive at a place, the scenery presents the beauty of no composition or decoration, natural everything, and even no focus. The soft and heavy color, the single picture extends endlessly. When the train is halfway through and close to the lake area, the weather suddenly becomes dark and the rain suddenly falls.

The tilted water column turned into a hazy moving horizontal line on the glass with the high speed of the train. At this moment, golden sunsets passed through the thick clouds. Under the refraction of these water columns, the carriage was shining brightly, and a lightly glowed with a layer of flashing soft golden light.

Little by little, I saw the edge of this thick cloud layer ahead. Outside the cloud layer, there was a sky that exuded water blue but gradually turned into a warm color.

After a while, the endless rain clouds were chasing the train, as if they were nostalgic, but they were gradually heading towards a bright spot. The stream that sometimes appeared winded and split the grasslands dyed by the sun, continuously showing the natural beauty of love and beauty.

Finally at night, Yunluo and Koala arrived in Edinburgh. As soon as they left the station, the koala was fascinated by this place. The sun had already set, but the sky was still bright. The whole sky was in a deep and thorough blue color. The surrounding buildings were heavy but not monotonous, making the city feel very close to the sky. The cold wind blowing came with a fresh atmosphere.

As the sun is approaching, it is so beautiful that it is fascinating. The clouds dragging their luggage fall on the jumping koala to guide the direction, groping all the way to the hotel. The roads in Edinburgh are uneven, the terrain is complex, with various bridges, high slopes, and some places with bumpy stone roads. It is really a big challenge for girls dragging suitcases.

Perhaps because Europe is not prosperous recently, I have indeed seen many people in Edinburgh Yunluo, with clean appearances. Young homeless men are sitting on the side of the road begging. The weather in Edinburgh is still very cold. Most of them sit on the side of the road in thick cloth, without saying a word.

Yunluo drags the box to move forward in the wind. When the wind blows, Yunluo will tremble a little until the heavy box makes Yunluo sweat slightly. For such a young homeless man, sitting on the side of the road on such a night, it must be extremely cold. So Koala found some coins and placed them carefully in his bowl. He said, "Dear, thank you, I wish you a happy night."

"Thank you, too." Koala is a very caring little princess who often does good deeds.

Then Yunluo was still lost, and the koala would gloat. Yunluo stopped a walking passerby and asked the location of the hotel. The other party was also a very young man. He frowned at Yunluo's address, then tinkered for a long time, opened the electronic map, entered the address, found the address for Yunluo, and told Yunluo how to get there.

Fortunately, the distance from the youth hostel is not far away, but I have to cross a few more intersections and climb a slope to arrive. Thanks to his kind help and walking with the koala, Yunluo finally saw the big sign of the hostel.

Yunluo and Koala will only stay for one night at this hotel. Tomorrow, Yunluo will participate in a two-day tour from Edinburgh to the Scottish Highlands, entering the wild highlands, but enjoying the true wild beauty of Scotland.

For the little princess Koala. Since director Robert has been on vacation, don’t think that Koala will play for seven days and go back to Paris, France. That’s not a koala. It’s rare that the little princess can be alone with Yun Luo, so she naturally cherishes it.

I stayed in a very standardized and batched hotel because of online booking. Members who are not members of the social organization need to pay a fee of 2 pounds per person per night. The Internet is 1 pound per hour, and breakfast is not included. The hotel rooms are beds with bunks on the upper and lower bunks, which are clean and clean. The washing and bathing are integrated into a shower room, which is very uniform and standardized.

The next morning, Yunluo got up early to pack his luggage and went to the second hotel with an empty koala. This hotel is also the most beautiful hotel that Yunluo has stayed on the way. Not only does it have cute employees, but also a cute garden in front of the window. Every morning, the sound of seagulls on the roof always makes Yunluo dream before waking up.

However, it is not easy for Yunluo to arrive at this hotel with luggage. The hotel is located behind Carlton Mountain. After a bumpy stone road, Yunluo faces the high hillside and has to sigh and curse rudely.

Then he dragged the box and climbed up the mountain step by step, because Yunluo knew that the time to gather with Yunluo and the tour group was getting closer. If he didn't get as soon as possible, Yunluo and Koala would probably miss the time to send a tour group.

A blond and blue-eyed lady asked Yunluo what she wanted to come, checked Yunluo's reservation information, and then asked Yunluo to store the box very happily. After Yunluo thanked her, she trotted down the mountain with her travel bag and Koala, but when she looked at the watch, she was still 20 minutes away from the group's gathering time.

However, Yunluo still knows nothing about the streets of Edinburgh, and it is impossible to predict whether Yunluo can arrive at the designated time. Moreover, even if Yunluo did not find the wrong way, time is not optimistic. Therefore, it was the only time during Yunluo and Koala that he tried the expensive and well-known taxi service in the UK.

The British taxi has a retro appearance. But when you sit in, you will find that the interior space is huge, and the empty space that can be retracted is more than enough even if you place a wheelchair.

Taxis in the UK are not as difficult as domestic, and may also be related to the high price. According to locals, if you buy directly from the airport, it is likely to take nearly 100 pounds to return to your home in the city center, which is more than 1,000 yuan.

The driver asked Yunluo's destination politely, and drove forward very much by traffic rules. Even when he was congested with road construction, he was slow and did not rush to change lanes. Instead, Yunluo, who was sitting behind the car, was anxious, but he was worried about face and was difficult to urge him.

It was actually about fifteen minutes away from the car. The taxi was sold for more than 5 pounds. Yunluo paid the fare and got off the car and looked around to find the place where the group was sent. However, Yunluo had done something very ungraceful.

Perhaps because Yunluo's strategy was not detailed enough, British taxis and restaurants needed to pay tips, but the driver did not ask Yunluo for requests or reminders. However, when Yunluo reviewed the strategy again, it was inevitable that it was a bit embarrassing. More importantly, such a expensive fare plus a 15% tip is indeed a bit confusing.

The little princess Koala knew it, but she just didn't say it. She looked at Yun Luo with a smile and felt it was very interesting.

The two reported that they belonged to the larger travel agency in Scotland. The staff were all wearing dark green tops. Of course, the driver and tour guide had to wear the traditional Scottish skirt and thick white socks, allowing the dense hair on the bare legs to dance with the cold wind in Scotland.

Our tour guide was a Scottish guy with long blonde hair. He was very funny and dedicated with glasses. But after actually talking, he was like other people who were engaged in the tourism industry, and he had a sense of indifference that he saw countless people.

With the fast-paced Scottish bagpipes all the way, the young man who accompanied him deliberately lowered his mysterious and weird voice from time to time, and the jokes that were so fast that we were a little too hard to hear. We rushed on the road to Glasgow. Even though we had not yet entered the highlands, the endless grasslands on both sides and the unique vegetation in the cold area, as well as the expectation of travel, we were immersed in a happy atmosphere.

The guy’s joke was indeed a side dish on this highland itinerary. After picking up the remaining members of the group, we went deep into the highland. The old couple we met at a London hotel before told Yunluo that the area of ​​the highland was very large and could hardly even see the fur on the 2nd.

Along the way, we saw many private cars driving for families. However, minibuses like ours are rare, and most of them carry bicycles on the roof. Whenever we go to a beautiful place, we will see people who park and ride along the bicycle path.

Scotland is vast and the weather is extremely cold when it penetrates deep into the highlands. Even in such a season, some not-so-high hills still accumulate white snow, coupled with the summoned blue sky and white clouds, sometimes feeling like being in heaven.

But what is very different from heaven is that there is civilization there. Even in the wilderness where people are rarely visited, the bicycle paths are all paved, faintly embedded in the yellow grass, and flowing in circles. I have to admire the local government's intentions. Compared with such bicycle paths, the utilization rate must not be particularly high.

Moreover, such a long and remote lane must require a lot of construction and maintenance fees, but if it is reasonable, the government will invest in the construction and maintenance.

Every glance on the road is full of beautiful pictures. Such layers of trees are like pastoral scenery in classical paintings that are reappearing in front of you, such trees and hillsides. Perhaps it is just these artists who can record and describe the beauty they see.

Ancient and deserted buildings, paired with the sun and light unique to the plateau, and the mountains in the dark, perhaps in this second, what flashed in my eyes was a masterpiece, and then at another corner, I saw a glittering stream facing away.

The winding and winding trees leaned over to protect the stream from one side. Juanjuan's yellow grass was like an extremely thick carpet, spreading all the way to the sky.

Yunluo likes to call such beauty great beauty and shocking. But Yunluo loves loves loves lovely people in Scotland more. On the evening of the first day, we arrived at a small town by Loch Ness. The latitude there was higher than that of London, with thin and cold air and golden glows of beautiful towns. Koala happily led Yunluo along the river covered with daffodils.

The sound of children playing echoed from time to time in the low wall, and the little flowers poked their heads out of the yard greeted each other from time to time, and they were all kinds of fruits or shrubs with small flowers. If there was a place called Paradise, this place must be one of them, a place where you can fall asleep and wake up at any time.

The low slope on the back of the church was covered with green grass. The furry dots attracted the attention of Yunluo and Koala. After a closer look, they saw furry little rabbits looking for food on the grass. The black pits next to them were their nests, large and small, and various colors.

The surroundings were very quiet at night, and perhaps only some taverns were filled with the strong smell of whiskey, the strong smell and laughter. The youth hostel we stayed at that night was in good condition, with locked clothes cabinets, a small restaurant downstairs, and the bathroom facilities were relatively spacious.

Yunluo and Koala walked in the town in the early morning. I believe that for such a small town, few people got up so early. The streets were almost empty. Yunluo ordered an Italian spicy sandwich according to yesterday's memory, and Koala ordered fried eggs and toast.

The two of them sat slowly on the bench on the street, in the early morning sunlight and a bag of black tea. On the cold morning, they felt like they were lit up instantly.

Later, it turned out that sandwiches were the best choice when it was impossible to understand the dishes described on the complicated menu. In most cases, the meals ordered at high prices were not as delicious and healthy as Subway.

The journey back to Edinburgh is as beautiful as the people in the town are beautiful and happy, and they can't stop tourists from savoring handmade ice cream. After lunch at a cake shop, Yunluo asked for a single mango ball. The cute lady took a big ride for Yunluo. Yunluo chewed the ice cream and the koala leisurely shopping and walking back.

He turned around suddenly and almost bumped into an elderly old man. The other party was obviously shocked by Yun Luo's sudden turn, but in just a moment, he noticed the ice cream in Yun Luo's hand, and a cunning smile appeared on his face, which was full of wrinkles and collapsed. He used his hand to make an action of stealing ice cream. Yun Luo was stunned on the spot.

Then he laughed out loud, made a happy move, and said politely to him. No matter how old he is, these cute people in the small town of England are unforgettable to Yunluo. Those different interpretations and optimism in facing life may just be in that sly smile, the fingers that bent and snatched ice cream, all the time.

It was sunset again when I returned to Edinburgh, but for this city, this moment was more like an afternoon, and people kept flowing, but the store closed the doors early according to local time and did not follow the sun's arrangements.

Yunluo walked all the way back to the hotel where she put her luggage and quickly checked in. The beggar staff had already placed Yunluo's luggage in the room early, which also made Yunluo breathe a sigh of relief. Yunluo's box was really not light.
Chapter completed!
