One thing led to another and we ended up walking almost 10 miles towards South Queensferry from the Dalmeny estete, in a mixture of lashing rain and sunshine peeking through the clouds. The walk ended with a meal in the famous Hawes Inn (it is featured in novel 'Kidnapped' by Robert Louis Stevenson) just by the Forth Rail Bridge. The pies were on a small side I thought, but after several hours of intense walking (and talking, it is always good to have deep conversations about meaning of life with longknown friends) this kind of food was very welcomed. We demolished some profiteroles, apple crumble and pecan pie too. We have returned home on a completely empty Edinburgh bus and we slept like babies.
Can you imagine that someone tried to saw off the bronze horse that stands in front of the Dalmeny House?! I though that these kind of things happen only in my homeland...
