After going to Glasgow and visiting Fiona in Ayre I spent a few days in Edinburgh. Yet another beautiful city and I am in love with the castle.

Yesterday I did do most of those things, I got some Jaffa cakes at the grocery (which are amazing, by the way), had something to eate, and visited the Museum of Scotland long enough to see Dolly the sheep.
