Edinburgh part 2

Inside the Chapel was the arms display. It was really neat. I'm not sure what this is but it would be a really cool (and dangerous) steering wheel.




Overlooking Edinburgh harbor from outside Helm's deep. Kidding this is still inside the castle




Beautiful beautiful sight. Oh yeah, Edinburgh on west end.




A big cannon. Only fired 3 times. It took an army of 100 men to move it 3 miles per day.








Oldest part of castle. Built in 1100




I found the dog cemetery. Look at the tombstones!




We had a Scottish lunch. Brian had a chicken pie with mash. I had sausages and mash. Before you ask, we had haggis for breakfast and are still tasting it.




Bridget had the best: cinnamon crunch waffle.




The royal mile.




Scott's monument. From far and close.








It cost 4 pounds to get in. We would have lost another two climbing stairs so we passed.




Castle behind a bald guy.
