Peebles

Yesterday Jacob and I took a trip to a town about 30 miles away from Dalkeith called Peebles. Since it's Jacob's last name we had to visit it. We caught the bus at the Edinburgh Bus Station and it costed both of us 8.60 pounds to round trip, which isn't too bad. The weather was not ideal and consisted of a mixture of snow and rain. When we arrived it reminded us a lot of Marion except with a few more shops and cafes. We grabbed some lunch, shopped around and walked along the river Tweed which runs through the town. Peebles has the nicest people we have met so far in all of Scotland. Everywhere we went people asked us where we were from and what brought us to Scotland. We obviously would tell them that Jacob's last name was Peebles and many of them would ask if he was related to Hugh Peebles (also from the States) who lived there. Maybe Jacob is related, who knows? We definitely enjoyed our day there and even though we probably won't be returning I'm sure Jacob's happy to say he's been there.

Love and Miss you,

Jacob and Hayley
