23/01/25 - Portobello - Edinburgh by the Sea

A Pub Crawl without the Pubs

Another walk from Bob Steel's CAMRA Pub Walks In Edinburgh.

Mrs M is never going to pass up the opportunity for a coastal walk. And Portobello offers this in spades. A promenade. Lapping Waves. Golden Sands. Beachside Volleyball nets. Sea Bathers. We could be in the Med. If it was about 20 degrees warmer.

She almost knocked the Adventure Lab Geocaching on the head.

As we were here for breakfast (Haggis stacks needed to be photographed) - we were always going to be too early for the pubs. Bob recommended four - the Dlariada and Three Monkeys long closed. The Omelie Tavern and Espy remain for another day.

Maybe we will be back for a summer's day.

Civilisation returned to by heading inland along Brunstane Burn.
