Edinburgh
The city seen from Carlton Hill. (I had a nice tumble down this hill and ruined my boots)

Sunset in Edinburgh
Have no idea who the guy on the horse is.

Hill of Daffodils and City
In the center of the city, below the castle, is a park that was full of gorgeous daffodils! Spring flowers but definitely not spring weather...

St Margaret's Chapel
The oldest building in Edinburgh

Roslyn Chapel
The beautiful chapel which plays an important role in the end of Dan Brown's "Da Vinci Code" and is now overrun with tourists.

Ceiling of Roslyn Chapel
Every inch of the chapel is covered with intricate carvings, beautiful!

Inscription in Roslyn Chapel
Translates as "Wine is strong. The king is stronger. Women are stronger still: but truth conquers all."

nice photos and commentary
I've thoroughly enjoyed your photos and commentary on all things British. They sparked a flood of memories about my own trip to England and Scotland during college. I've been an anglophile ever since! Your postings capture the same sense of wonder and adventure that I enjoyed during my exploration of the British Isles. It's too bad you're not visiting Edinburgh during the festival in August. - J.
