Fun "Stuff" from Edinburgh


While Scott and I did really enjoy the castle, palace, and cathedral in Edinburgh we found that there was so much more to see and enjoy. This collection of photos pretty much covers our fun!
Both days we were in Edinburgh we passed a bagpiper. We couldn't pass up the photo op!
Sir William Wallace, of Braveheart fame? This "Wallace" is a high school drama teacher. His picture is actually on all of the travel brochures and postcards for Edinburgh. He only does this to raise money for charities. This day he was raising money to fight leukemia.

Monument to Sir Walter Scott. It's 200 feet 6 inches tall. There are 297 steps to the top, and Scott climbed them all!
Edinburgh is the home of J.K.Rowling, author of Harry Potter. It is said that The Elephant House is the birthplace of Harry Potter!

Shopping on The Royal Mile. Ever wonder what's under the kilt?

Yep, that's us!
