My 3rd Grade Edinburgh Report

(By Rim Vilgalys, Age 21)

Edinburgh is very hilly so you can see . All the buildings are old and pretty and made of rock. If you go up to Edinburgh Castle you can see the whole city! Also, there are the Scottish Crown Jewels and some other stuff that I forgot about. It had a lot of swords too*.

We also went to the Scottish Whiskey Experience to experiance experience some Scottish Whiskey. We rode in a plastic whiskey barrel and learned all about how to get drunk like the people in Scotland do.

The next day, we climbed a mountain called Arthur's Seat. It was 824 feet tall! But Sarah didn't want to climb all the way because she is a wuss. I made her anyway and we did.

In conclusion, I give Edinburgh an 8 out of 10 rating because it is fun, but it is too hilly and too plaid. I think it would be better if they bulldozed some hills and made it less plaid.

[*However, it would be easy as hell to capture that place were we to drop ninjas from airplanes. They would be totally unprepared for that.]

If the ninjas were also wearing kilts, then the plaid would lull people into thinking the ninjas were Scottish (if a bit eccentric) thus giving the ninjas the upper hand.
