Arriving into Edinburgh

Next we caught the train to Edinburgh and spent our first night in a tent. Turned out to be wet, would you know it! Sat was our first big day where we managed 50 miles (80km) from Edinburgh to Perth. Wasn't too hilly, but we were exhausted by the end. Had nice weather for the first half, then rain, thunder, hail (!!!!) and within minutes the roads were like rivers. We finally arrived in Perth looking like drowned rats, but found a campsite and commenced drying all our gear.
They say here that "if you can't see the hills then it's raining, and if you can, then it's about to". Whilst in the mountains at least, this is pretty much accurate!
