I don't remember many days quite so pretty.<BR/>@Janet & Lenore, yes the view was, presumably still is, fantastic.<BR/>@Jakill, The Royal Mile, that's what you walked down. Holyrood is spooky?

If you don't know it, from this viewpoint, you wonder how on earth you get up there. But I have a vague memory that, if you walk straight down from the castle, you get to the spooky Holyrood Palace. Would that be right?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02811710431280544637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673631888005019643.post-46871991831178737022008-09-28T19:24:00.000+01:002008-09-28T19:24:00.000+01:00The cold wind is still with us - but so are the fa...The cold wind is still with us - but so are the fantastic views!<BR/>Going down the hill form et castle, my children always want to go to Camera Obscura - where you can see even more of the City.Janet and Lenorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08188379441331429113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673631888005019643.post-27483594348245252202008-09-28T15:08:00.000+01:002008-09-28T15:08:00.000+01:00Such a pretty postcard...I like the castle and puf...Such a pretty postcard...I like the castle and puffy clouds against the blue sky.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8673631888005019643.post-29693784444097533232008-09-28T02:55:00.000+01:002008-09-28T02:55:00.000+01:00I've been to the castle - back in the '80's.
