Scotland - Round 1

Sitting down is good. Really good. I've walked around a bijillion miles in the last 2 days with way too much of it uphill! Now a 4 hour train ride, ahh, rest for the weary

Last night I told Joann that we need to sell the house and move to Scotland, you may want to move as well. It's cool, it's pretty, it's cool (did I mention that?).

I spent the morning at Edinburgh Castle. My "church time" was spent in a chapel built in the 1600's, it is the oldest building in Edinburgh. It's about the size of my hotel room.

Edinburgh is a very musical city. Streetside musicians are scattered about and range from bagpipe to violin to guitar and some kind of long wooden horn accompanied by a bean bag.

I say "round 1" because I'm pretty sure that I will find Scotland again before I head home.

Pictures in a day or two...

  1. One of the jugglers in Edinburg is Ann McAlister's grandson. She said that he had been doing it several years there.
