當然，這又是一個沒有任何行程計畫的旅行，只單單定好了火車票以及住宿，收拾好一個後背包後便赴箕了。
並沒有充分的行前規劃，而且只有自己一個人行動的計畫，為這趟旅行增添了些許刺激感
然而在行前我說服自己，在這一生當中至少要體驗一次自己一個人的背包旅行，既然如此何不現在就試試呢？
出發的那天，我一大清早就到達王十字車站報到了。
雖然名義上時值英國的夏天，但在那有些許微風吹拂的早晨，竟意外令人感到一絲絲寒意。
當走進車票上指示著的車廂，找到未來幾小時可供我暫時依偎的那舒適位子之後，我的五個小時直奔愛丁堡的火車之旅也正式宣告啓程。
In the end of last month, I randomly decided to travel alone in Scotland.
Again, ain't set up any schedule before the trip, I only booked the hostel and train ticket and packed my little backpack went on my journey ~
It's quite irritated when you go traveling by yourself but actually without any particular schedule beforehand.
However I persuaded myself that I should experience a backpacking trip as least once in my lifetime.
So ... why don't I just give it a go ?!
I arrived London King's Cross station in a very early morning. Though it was already the summertime in London but still it was a chilly, breezy morning.
When I went into the carriage which was written on my ticket, and found my comfy seat. My five hours journey to Edinburgh by train was about to start.

那天天氣不是很好。北英格蘭下著滂沱大雨，於是乎我開始有點擔心是否蘇格蘭也是如此。
The weather wasn't very good. It was pouring in northern England .. so I was quite worry if the weather will be going to be ok in Scotland.
進入蘇格蘭前在英格蘭的最後一站，新堡
Our final stop in England was Newcastle, and then we were heading to Scotland.
前往愛丁堡的路上有一段鐵路是沿著海岸線築起的，一路上壯麗的臨海斷崖風光綿延不斷。
There was a part of railway that was built along the seashore with a striking view of cliff and sea.
經過了嚴格來說五個半小時的長途車程後，終於可以說，愛丁堡我來了！
After literally says five and half hours long way journey, I could finally say.. Edinburgh !! here I am :)
我訂的青年旅社位於愛丁堡古堡所在的山丘的山腳下，並且只需要步行五分鐘即可到達舊城區的主要大街，對於我們這些依賴一雙腳走跳的背包客來說非常便利。
其實，它在一些背包客網站，及部落客推薦名單中也是間蠻為人所熟知的青旅。
一切無非是因為他便利的地理位置，以及合理的訂房價格。
The youth hostel that I booked was in the foot of the hill where located Edinburgh castle and it only took me five minutes by walk to the high street of old town which is very convenient for any backpacker like me to look around the city.
And it was actually quite well-known on some tourist websites and bloggers' recommendation list since its nice location and their price wasn't quite expensive.
第一天，並沒有太多預先計畫的我，就只是隨意的走馬看花，拍些照。
由於抵達的時間時值正午，我那咕嚕咕嚕叫的肚子已經暗示著該為它作點什麼事了，比如說：吃午餐！
於是我走進一條於大街旁小巷子，一個不怎麼起眼的咖啡館裡，準備為肚子好好打點打點一番。
雖說她的外觀很不起眼，但是當我走上咖啡館的二樓時，她的室內裝璜卻很是令人驚艷。
而在其牆角被人擺上了一面巨大，綴有維多利亞風格邊飾的大鏡子，不瞞你說...那面鏡子高度比我還要高出許多呢！
In the frist day, I didn't have any plan but just walked around the city centre and took some snapshots of this historical city. Since I arrived in the noon. My rumbling tummy was hinting me that it was time for lunch now. I therefore turn into an unnoticeable cafe' located in a lane against to high street to get myself a proper meal.
I was really impressed by the interior installation when I walked up to the first floor . There actual had a giant mirror with victorian decorative frame which height even taller than me laid against the wall.

愛丁堡古堡的入口。
由於參觀費太過昂貴，連優惠價（敬老或學生）都需要13鎊，折合台幣約莫六百多塊。我實在是負擔不起，於是便打退堂鼓了～
不過，若他們調降價格的話，我是絕對不會放過這個機會的。
The entrance of Edinburgh castle. i didn't go in to the castle, because I thought the entry fee was too expensive for me. A concession ticket was 13 pounds per each.. I couldn't afford it though.Think if they reduced the fare, I would be very willing to pay for visiting then.
雖然說沒有機會進去古堡裡一探究竟，然而仍舊是被我找到了個值得一看的博物館。
作家博物館，而且她是免費參觀的歐！
Though I couldn't have chance to visit the castle, but still I found a place which was worthy to visit.
The writer's museum. Besides, it was free entry！
參觀完作家博物館之後，我又再度隨意的跟著一小群人走進了墓園區。
那天的天氣實在是不怎麼好，光線不佳，於是乎我拍的每張照片不是太暗，要不就是呈現出一種了無生氣的詭譎氛圍～
在第一天的愛丁堡之旅中我其實並沒有拍太多照。或許天氣不好是其中很大的因素，但也或者是因為，我覺得用一雙眼睛來紀錄當下一切的美景就已經足夠了吧！
After explored the Writer's Museum. I followed a group of people to go into a cemetery.
The weather condition was just so bad in that day. So that every pictures that I took were looked so dark and inanimate with a eery vibe.
I didn't take many photos of my first day in Edinburgh. Maybe cus the weather wasn't good enough or perhaps just cus I thought it was good enough to use my both eyes to record all of the beautiful sceneries that surrounded me.
