My Scottish Adventure!: 2015 | Perfect Fixations

Hello darlings

Last Thursday i got back from my holiday in Scotland, i had so much fun and did so many cool things i thought i'd share it with you. I went for a week, we took the sleeper train up, which was actually really cool as i've never been on a sleeper train before. It consists of you getting on around 8pm in London and having dinner on the train, then hanging on in the sofas until you go to bed. You then wake up in Scotland around 8am and have breakfast. As you can expect sleeping on a train isn't easy, even with a comfy bed, but waking up and having breakfast while going through the mountains definitely made up for it. It was amazing.

We stayed in Inverness which was so pretty as it was sounded by mountains. It was quite a big place but everyone was really friendly. While there my family went skiing in Aviemore, we went shopping in Edinburgh,my brother bought a kilt! We walked to Lockness but unfortunately didn't see Nessie. We took the train up to Kyle of Lochlash and Thurso which is the furthest North you can go in Scotland.

Overall i had a pretty cool time, so here are a few pictures i took.

I hope you enjoy :)

London 2014

On the 19th June me and my friend Jess embarked on our adventure to London. 

We went from the 19th-21st June.

The trip was filled with small hotel rooms, loud air cons, annoying children on the train, attacked by ducks and squirrels, and illnesses.

But even with these situations it was awesome! We did so much! We went to Harrods, Hyde Park, St James Park, The V and A, (2 exhibitions), The National Gallery, we walked past Buckingham Palace, A bus tour, The tower of London, the Globe Theatre...

An exhausting few days, but so worth it.

Here is a few things we did :) 

I spent the previous day, the 18th, at Jess's house in Bishops Waltham. We spent time looking around the town and exploring the old ruins.

The houses of Parliament and Big Ben
