As a warm down we ventured in to the city centre and witnessed a large turn out marching peacefully along Princess Street against the ongoing hostilities in Palestine, from here we took the brief walk to The Fruit Market art gallery beside Waverley station where amongst the other avant-garde exhibits we watched the Luis Buñuel /Salvador Dalí film ‘Un Chien andalou’ which has the renowned and disturbing opening scene of a woman’s eyeball being sliced with an open razor.
With this stomach churning image engrained in our consciousness we navigate eastwards to Leith docks and the nautical interior designed Britannia Spice restaurant which provides us with an attentive service and 1st class menu.
