After two lovely days spent primarily out of Edinburgh, we wanted to spend our last day in Scotland exploring our home base. Edinburgh is a beautiful, unique city. While most of it's architecture is Georgian and reminiscent of London, it's topography makes it a very interesting city full of hills and twists. It has a large rocky outcropping...really almost a mountain right in the heart of the city that has cliffs, an elevated pond and a rocky summit. It was apparently formed by a volcano a very long time ago and is named Arthur's Seat. It made for a lovely day hike and once again we completely lucked out on the weather. Maybe the British Isles really are sunny and that whole rainy, overcast weather thing is just a conspiracy to keep people away.
Finally...the whole group!
Mark rockin' out in the A4.
A handsome man and some beautiful rocks.
Scary.
This little pond was about half way up to the top.
On the way down.
That's a long fall.
Edinburgh Castle
Riley at the summit
Enjoying a sunny day
Looking down
Mark looking kind of hard core.
Giving my man a smooch.
That's right...it's a 5 pound note with Jack Nicklaus on the back...a non Scottish golfer is on Scottish currency.
The UK loves puns!
The Royal Mile
A random Edinburgh cityscape.
This one is just for Mark...if anybody else gets the reference, thumbs up.
