... so said Robert Lewis Stevenson about the beloved Arthur's Seat, a nature lover's paradise in Edinburgh's Holyrood Park.
On the final day of Fresher's Week my friend Sara and I joined the Uni's Hillwalking Society for a jaunt to the top of Edinburgh's most famous mini mountain. With about twenty other die-hards we trudged through wind and rain, slipping on rocks and shielding our faces from the downpour, until we reached the peak -- one of the possible locations of the legendary castle Camelot.
| Soaked and all smiles :) |
Then, as we descended the other side of Arthur's Seat, the skies cleared, the sun shone, and...
... I was greeted by my very first Scottish rainbow!
A very happy bunny indeed, I hurried my tail over to Greenmantle Pub with the rest of the Society, where Sara and I shared snacks and stories for the rest of the afternoon.
