Edinburgh (pronounced Eh-din-brrrrruh, obviously) was absolutely brim-full with charm. The Royal Mile, which runs from Holyrood Castle to Edinburgh Castle is lined with the expected tourist trap shops. But ducking into the alley ways (closes), we found a wealth of unusual treasures.

Edinburgh Castle was good for two or so hours of wandering, and our time was well spent at the Writer’s Museum, the cemetery at Cannongate Kirk, and Arthur’s seat - a hell of a climb but more importantly, a hell of a view. It’s positively breath-taking. See for yourself.

Pictobrowser doesn’t seem to be working for me right now, so here are a few Thumbnails. Or, if you want, check out the whole set on flickr.
