WEDNESDAY-Edinburgh - Royal Mile
It's very very very touristy here and very very very historical too. High Street and The Royal Mile are synonymous, by the way.
My favorite feature of High Street? The closes! Pronounced "KLOHS" not "KLOHZ".
Closes are narrow passages that pretty much only one person can fit through, like an outdoor hallway. They're dark, and even in the middle of the day a little creepy. Some are a city block long, some shorter, some longer. I just love them!
I was very happy to find James' Court Close, a close that opens into a lovely little residential courtyard called James' Court!
