5th July Day in Edinburgh.

Up early and off. Still looking like rain but not as windy. Made it to the bus and into Edinburgh before 9.30. Left bags at motel just near the city centre and off to buy a tourist bus ticket to see the sights. Lovely collection of flowering baskets



This is where we stayed.


First off to visit the Queen's Galley where they had a display of Dutch Landscapes. Beautiful paintings and very interesting. For once I was the one dragging the chain. That finished we found this building outside near the bus stop. Got no idea what it was, but looked really old. Make a good gate house at home????


On the bus and round and round the town. Lovely old buildings and the rain held off so we got to sit out on the top of the double decker buses. Great views of the castle.



Dinner and back to the motel and bed.
