Pictures!!

So this is moment you all have been waiting for...pictures of Edinburgh!! They are in no sort of cronological order at all, but I'll do my best to narrrate...

This is the view from the roof outside my window--I'm so stoked to have a roof to sit out on and read, though with winter coming, I don't think it will last long...

The part of town we are in is called Old Town/ Leith Walk...it's alot more "Euro" than the south part of the town, and it has more of a community vibe to it. I love it for sure.

This is the west end of the Royal Mile, Edinburgh's oldest and historically most busy street, now it's just a tourist trap, but still beautiful.

This is one of Edinburgh's many "Closes" or small alleys that used to make up the streets of the Old City.

This is another picture of the Royal Mile, this time from mid way down the street.


This was taken from the castle that overlooks the whole town, we are looking at the south westen part of town now.

This is Edinburgh's famous Princes street, a shopping Mecca that is packed on weekends.

This is another picture from the castle, this time looking south east.

Another shot from the castle, now we are looking North towards Princes Street and our house. That is the Fith of Forth in the distance, a salt water body that helps mellow out the weather in the winter (or so I'm told).


And last but not least, pictures of the castle itself, not the greatest shots, but you get the idea.


Well, that's all for now, there's more to come later...
