Back in the apartment everyone had risen from their slumber. I was telling them about my short excursion and now they were ready to tackle the neighborhood and some breakfast. Coffee often came up in the conversation. Taking the stairs down to the street level we exited the door into the bright sunlight. It was going to be a beautiful day and the weather was definitely on our side I was to find out as the days unfolded. We came upon the Magma Cafe just a block from where we were staying. A whiteboard at the entrance along with the notes posted on the cork board promised a delicious breakfast with vegetarian options. We found the atmosphere cozy and the woman waiting on us was kind and welcoming. Tina and I ordered separately while Queena and Sarah shared. Once we ate we planned the day ahead. The first step was to find the Edinburgh Castle. From my earlier exploration I had an idea of the general direction we needed to go. So it was back to the apartment, where we mapped out our path to the center of town.
