Used Edinburgh Trams at long last!

At long last, I’ve used the Edinburgh Trams! It took me so long, since when it opened in May 2014, between Edinburgh Airport and York Place. It went, no where of any use! Well not for me anyway! But now the line has been extended to Newhaven to give me a reason to use them!

Myself at Ocean Terminal tram stop

I can now say, I’ve used the following stops:-

  • West End
  • St Andrew Square
  • The Shore
  • Ocean Terminal

WOW! All my cycling and activities for 2023!

WOW! Look at my 2023 activities map so far! Which right now, is many made up of walking! I will get them Lycra (cycling) miles in soon!
