Edinburgh Castle

Here are some shots from our visit to Edinburgh Castle. It was a gloomy rainy day, which suits the mood of the huge gray castle on a huge gray rock hovering over the windy streets of Edinburgh, but it's not the best for photography.


Looking at the gate toward the city:
The view onto Prince Street from the castle grounds:

Approaching the castle...
Chapel:
Mons Meg, a big famous gun given as a wedding gift (google it):
Fancy woodwork in the great hall (and a cute guy).
Randy standing where American POWs from the American Revolutionary War would have been held. Check out the orb! It didn't show up in the same shot without Randy moments later.




The sign reads: "Cemetery for Soldiers' Dogs" - Aw.





Well, it's time to pack up our things and head to Munich - seriously! I think they're going to let us go today.

Gary & I took a tour in '05. It was our coldest day too! Did they shoot the big gun & scare the bejeebers out of you too?
