Scotland, Day 8: Royal Mile Performers and Knightclub

Scotch

Whisky Where
Loch Lomond 10 With dinner at Element.

We spent time watching street performers on the Royal Mile: a flute looper, a fire juggler, a knife juggler, and a magician doing cups and balls.

Lunch was at Filling Station: a chicken burger, fish and chips, and strawberry lemonade.

Knightclub was like Fight Club with monks and knights. Think Fight Club meets A Knight’s Tale on Monty Python and the Holy Grail’s budget. Very silly.

We also saw How to Become a Movie Star. We just grabbed tickets at the box office. It was OK.

Back outside, there were more street performers, including a blues guitarist and a basketball man.

Dinner was at Element. I had Chicken Balmoral, and we also had mushroom stroganoff and a Scotch egg. The drinks were Loch Lomond 10 and Inch’s cider.

Part of our August 2025 Scotland trip. Trip summary.
