Counting Minutes128 viewsAt the airport with the family before leaving for Europe.

New Town?127 viewsBelieve it or not, this is a shot back at Princes St, which, while hardly new by North American standards, is quite a bit newer than the Old Town, I guess.

First European Photo114 viewsI hadn't even found my hostel yet (in fact, I'd just gotten off the bus from the airport to downtown in the new city) and I had to get some pictures of the castle and surrounding parks. Really beautiful.

|
Cemetary104 viewsI found out later this is actually a cemetary. I went up to look and ended up staying and reading a bunch of tombs and headstones. I found it interesting that they listed who bought the stone and the person's occupation on almost all the graves. And usually had a small retelling of their life/death.

The Radisson102 viewsSort of beats the one in Saskatoon, wouldn't you say?

|
Time marches on98 viewsAs this statue sits watching, the clock is chiming.
|
|
North/South Bridge98 viewsThe bridge has a different name depending what side you're on. Much of Edinburgh seems to have two levels of road, and sometimes you'll come to an overpass 15 storeys up not knowing you weren't on the ground.
|
|
New castle98 viewsThis is the royal residence when they come and visit.
|
|
Edinburgh Castle97 viewsHere's one of just the castle itself. Apparently, this park was a lake a few hundred years ago and they drained it to build the new city.
|
|
Edinburgh Castle Park95 viewsHere's another shot from the park.
|
|
Dean91 viewsWith the city.
|
|
Appropriate Plane90 viewsThis is the jet that was to take me away from home. Who needs patches on backpacks when you can paint the whole plane?
|
|
Marble Tulip90 viewsSome flowers for me mum. So pretty.
|
|
Hilly Old Town90 viewsA view from the castle towards the hill of the old town.
|
|
Closer90 viewsThis is a small "Close" (alley) in Edinburgh. Very hilly. Sometimes, there would be shops with their storefronts here.
|
|
Scottish Parliament90 viewsThey recently redid their parliament buildings amid, as you may have guessed, a lot of controversy. I actually thought the design was kind of cool, especially when you see the surrounding accents.

|
Cool buildings89 viewsNothing unique here, just some neat buildings.
|
|
Salisbury Craig89 viewsWith the yellow bush that is so prevalent here in Scotland. The climb is on.
|
|
20 Deans Over Edinburgh89 viewsHere I am, towering over the city. The picture was courtesy some nice women from Florida.
|
|
Bagpipe'd Pie-er87 viewsI wasn't in Scotland very long before I ran across somebody with a bagpipe and an open guitar case.
