Edinburgh Castle at night


Edinburgh Castle at night

Edinburgh is a great city. It's probably my favorite next to Vancouver, of course, and Stockholm. It has a population of only 550,000 but it seems it should be much bigger. They have a great transport system (I hear) and there were very few cars on the roads. The city is full of magnificent buildings and interesting sights and everything is within walking distance. Someone mentioned to me they thought that if you could take all of the interesting and significant things in London and get rid of all the other stuff you'd be left with Edingburgh. You need just walk a block and there'd be another cool thing to see or do. The only complaint was the prices for fish and chips. They charge £5.50 ($11CDN) for a small order. Highway robbery, I say!!
