Towered over by large Victorian buildings we soon made our bearings and Dean was at last impressed by some architecture. After dumping our packs we headed to explore. Calton Hill, which overlooks the city, provided a great lookout. It has a monument to Nelson and an observatory, and great views towards the old city and the castle, as well as Arthurs Seat, and the more modern city on the bay.
The next morning Dean did the tour of the Castle (I'd done it last time i was here) and I checked out Holyrood Palace, where the Queen stays when she's in town.
Dean had the obligatory haggis and we tried a few of the local beers.
But... after a couple of days, time to move on - plenty more towns to see. Edinburgh is a great city to visit - all the sights are within walking distance of each other (although all a good walk up a hill!) and everything is just... old...
Below are a couple of views of the city and castle from Calton Hill, and another picture of... somewhere!
