Sleep, glorious Sleep!
So the past two nights have been better. Nowhere near going through the night yet, but at least I've really been able to switch off and konk out, as opposed to just dozing between fussing babies, waking toddlers, etc.
Yesterday we went to Holyrood Palace. It's very much like any other grand country house you could visit, though definately smaller than the likes of Chatsworth and Castle Howard. Very homely feeling though and crawling with guides *everywhere*! My favorite thing was seeing the views to Holyrood Park out the back windows. Felicity's favorite thing was rolling on the lush red carpets in the throne room and grand gallery. Oh yes, and splashing in the gravel and puddles out back in the Holyrood Abbey - she played on the rock-bed remains of one of the pillars (basically now like 5-6 stones sitting on the ground) for almost 15 minutes. Our tickets are good for a year, so I'll probably take the kiddos back and try to listen to more of the audio commentary when it's not quite so busy.
