Fringe 2007


We had a blast at the 2007 Edinburgh Fringe Festival which has now just ended. Here are the shows that we saw: Cinderella, Emperor's New Clothes, and a Bubble Extravaganza. Claire was a feature performer in the latter today as she beat the bubble master in bubble volleyball on stage. Very fun. It never seems old riding a double-decker to Princes Street in downtown Edinburgh. On Saturday, we rode the bus to nearby Pentland Hills for a hill walk (hike) that went straight up at what seemed to be a 90 degree angle. We witnessed some DRY hill skiing - very much a UK thing. The girls did great on the arduous walk and we were rewarded with a blue sky and view of the ocean (firth of forth) and Edinburgh not to mention gale force winds and a rainbow peeking through the distant mist. After, we had a pub lunch with a pint of Bell Haven (adults only).
