Edinburgh – 14 to 18 November 2017

Left Fishcross and headed towards Edinburgh:

There was no availability here on the Friday night so the original plan was to stay only three nights then move on to Falkirk to see the wheel.  However, cancellations, along with the Christmas market starting on Saturday, persuaded us to stay until Sunday.  The attractions at Falkirk can wait for another day.

Took the usual stroll along the prom to Cramond village:

On Friday we went round the interesting People’s Story Museum, which chronicles the life and times of ordinary Edinburgh folk over the centuries.

We went into town on Saturday as well.  Hibs at home, International rugby at Murrayfield, the first full day of the Christmas markets, and a distinct lack of rain meant the place was heaving.

Space aliens landed on George Street?

 

Maybe not aliens, since they seem to have coned off the area in advance

And, of course, a picture of the castle
