Almost a done deal

After all my housing struggles, I might have finally found one! I went to the view the flat this morning. It's very close, a 3-minute walk from the guest house I'm currently in. I took a picture of the street its on: Duncan St. The architecture here is amazing!



The next picture is the front door of the flat-complex. Inside, it opens into a small "car park" for about 15 cars and an entry door/call box. I looked at Flat 14. It's pretty nice - it has a small bedroom (with a double bed), a sitting room (with couch and table), a kitchen/laundry room, and a bathroom. It's probably a little bit larger than I need for my stay, but I'm running out of options and I'll just be glad to have internet in my room at this point.



The location of the flat is pretty good. It's only a bit further from campus/center-city, but it's got 2 nice pubs right on the corner and a grocery store (Tesco) about a block away.







I did a little exploring after my flat viewing to ensure that the neighborhood was sufficiently Scottish. Luckily, this kilt store was right next to the bagpipe store, so I think it will be OK.






I did a little more exploring - a lot more actually - but I'll save some of those pictures for another post. I will, however, leave you with this picture - I was walking down the street and saw King Arthur's Seat, a mountain that we hiked the last time I was here, poking over some houses and thought it was pretty amazing. Hope you enjoy it too - I really miss everyone back home. Bye for now!
