Edinburgh




Edinburgh has to be my favourite city - in fact probably the only one I'd think of visiting for a holiday.

It has parks in the centre to sit in and soak up the sun - and yes, apart from a heavy 10 minute downpour one afternoon, the sun did shine.



It has fascinating alleys and secret wynds to discover just off the main Royal Mile which leads from the old castle on top of its rock to the 'newer' palace of Holyrood.

and wide open spaces in the New Town
with glimpses of the sea beyond

looking down Dundas Street to Fife


these three photographs were taken from the roof terrace of the National Museum of Scotland - a wonderful spot to get an almost bird's-eye view of the city



There's even a beach! What more could one want?
