ain't lost- just wandering

as i write this post the Scottish army is marching past my bedroom window playing the drums... just to set the mood.

so today we had one simple task: find fringe venue 40, the quaker meeting house, where we will be rehearsing/performing. this simple task turned into hours upon hours of walking and as the title of this post suggests, not getting lost- but instead just wandering... (and getting lost, but who's counting?)

we stumbled upon the cutest little cafe- metropole- where we grabbed a bite to eat (and hot pink tea in my case) and i am officially suffering my first crush (not  gonna lie, these accents make me swoon in a second.)

we found our way to the royal mile- filled with shops and stands and AWESOME architecture, and we even found the fringe information stand and watched previews of other shows outside. the trek to our actual venue was a bit confusing (mimicked by the confusing weather... it literally pours down rain for 2 minutes, and then will be sunny and beautiful the next 5, rinse and repeat.) but we found it finally, and saw our spot in their own venue guide for the fringe. on the way back home we stopped at a bunch of little vintage thrift stores, and i'm sure we will be making our way back there very soon- the deals are just too good to pass up!

looking forward to starting rehearsals tomorrow (granted we can get back to our space) and getting down to work!

oh, and PS- laptop is up and running, for those who were concerned (aka, me)
