Is not quite enough to appreciate this fabulous city.
Despite high winds and changeable skies, I fell in love with the place -- and am not at all disappointed to have to return next week. :)
Thanks to Travis’s comment on the previous post, I remembered to take my camera. Once I start snapping, it’s impossible to stop; I took 222 pictures. I’ve narrowed things down to what looks like a good cross-section, but -- this remains a very long post!
Hilly terrain and no urban sprawl,
means open views from the city centre
The Glasshouse Hotel:
a wonderful mix of old and new
Public art
Magnificent buildings
St. Andrew Square
Statues and monuments everywhere
A pub
One café...
And another
Sean Connery walked past me, twice, on Shandwick Place. His right arm was in a sling. I smiled, and he smiled back.
I regret not taking his photograph!
EDITED: There were originally twenty photos to this post. Which was a few too many, so I’ve cut it down to ten.
