On the Streets at the Edinburgh Festival

I’ve just come back from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and it was fantastic. I’d been a few years ago but managed to miss the Fringe (unintentionally) and arrived for the art and film festival which was great but didn’t have the incredible atmosphere on the street that the Fringe does. However, one thing was the same; the relentless rain.
What I loved about the Fringe was that the up-and-coming artists mingled with the established acts. The beauty of the Fringe is going to unknown small shows and discovering a treasure; however you have to kiss a few frogs to find a prince...
The city had an electric atmosphere as people were singing, dancing, pirouetting, pulling rabbits from hats and riding unicycles from morning until night. A must-see festival for arts lovers!
