Ahhh, finally picking up my UK travel blog again!
It's hard to believe that it's been almost a year since our family trip, and I'm still working on documenting all the memories. 
Honestly, completing this series has taken much longer than I expected. 
There were times when I kept putting it aside because of work, daily commitments and other things happening in life. 
Every time I thought about how many photos I still had to go through and how much writing was left to do, it felt like quite a task!
But at the same time, it's been such a fulfilling journey. 
Going through all the photos again, remembering the little moments, the places we visited, the food we enjoyed and all the fun we had as a family brought back so many lovely memories. 
Some details that I had almost forgotten came back to me just by looking at the pictures. 
And that's probably one of the reasons I enjoy blogging about my travels. 
It's not just about sharing destinations or giving travel tips; it's also a way of keeping these memories somewhere I can revisit whenever I want.
Anyway, I'm determined to finish this UK series! 
We're finally reaching the last day of our Edinburgh stay, and I can't believe we're almost at the end of this chapter.
After a few days of exploring Edinburgh, our final day was much more relaxed. 
We didn't plan a packed itinerary or rush from one attraction to another. 
Instead, we decided to take things slowly and explore a few nearby places, including the charming Dean Village, the pretty little street of Circus Lane and the ever-popular Calton Hill.
It was a nice change of pace after all the walking and sightseeing over the previous days. 
Sometimes, a slower travel day is just what we need to soak in the atmosphere of a city and enjoy the surroundings without feeling like we have to tick off every attraction.
So, let's make the most of our final day in Edinburgh before moving on to the next part of our UK family adventure!

It’s been almost a month since I last updated my blog.
Life has been a little too busy lately, and between work, daily life and everything else, I just haven’t had much time to sit down, edit photos and write.
Looking back at this year, I realised I haven’t travelled as much as I thought I would. 

Work has been keeping me pretty occupied, and sometimes it feels like there just aren’t enough hours in a day to do everything I want.
I did manage to squeeze in a short trip to Singapore recently, though, just to attend Byeon Woo-seok’s fan meeting. 

It was only a few days away, but honestly, little trips like this are so good for the soul. 

Sometimes, all you need is a short break from your usual routine to recharge and do something you love.
Anyway, I really want to get back to blogging and finish documenting our UK family trip. 

There are still so many memories I haven’t written about, and I don’t want to leave this series unfinished! My goal is to complete it by the end of this year, or hopefully even by the end of this month, so I can move on to sharing some of my other trips before 2026 comes to an end.
So, let’s pick up where we left off!
We’re now on Day 3 in Edinburgh, with another day of exploring ahead. Let’s see where we went next!

After all the driving, countryside, small towns and day trips, we finally reached the part of the trip I had been looking forward to the most, three full days exploring Edinburgh.
Although this wasn’t my first time in Edinburgh, it felt completely different coming back with my family. 

The last time I was here, I explored the city in a different way, but this time I wanted to take things a little slower and simply enjoy the city together.
Edinburgh is one of those cities where you don't really need to rush from one attraction to another.
Just walking through the streets is already an experience.
The old stone buildings, narrow lanes, grand architecture and little corners around the city make you feel like you have stepped into another era.
And of course, having my friend, Zay with us made the two days even more enjoyable.
Since she knew Glasgow and the surrounding area well, it was nice having someone familiar to help us navigate around and share little stories and recommendations along the way.
With eight of us travelling together, our days were naturally a mixture of sightseeing, walking, eating, shopping and taking plenty of family photos.
My parents were also surprisingly easy-going throughout the trip, so we could pretty much follow whatever plan we had without too much complaining. 
We had three full days in the city, which gave us enough time to see some of Edinburgh's most famous landmarks while still leaving room to wander around without feeling too rushed.
So, let's finally explore Edinburgh; from the iconic Royal Mile and Edinburgh Castle to the beautiful streets, viewpoints, food and all the little moments we enjoyed along the way.
