Edinburgh Edinburgh

"Leaned her back against an oak Edinburgh, Edinburgh,
Leaned her back against an oak, Stirling for ay,

Leaned her back against an oak, first it bent and then it broke,
And Bonny St. Johnstone lies fair upon Tay..."

(The traditional song 'Bonnie St. Johnstone', arranged by Richard Thompson)

Off to Edinburgh for the Duke of Edinburgh Award at Holyroodhouse. Exciting stuff, especially as we (family) decided to make a long weekend of it :)

LONG journey down...

Amazed by the architecture of the city as we walked through the centre at night to the youth hostel (having left the car outside the city). Quick photo of one of the more imposing buildings, though in practice, when I say quick, I did take a fair while adjusting setting... ops, sorry family!
