We used the Edinburgh Hop On Hop Off tour bus too, and took in an exhibition and a concert and a visit to Topping's Book Shop (thank you Karen of Cornflower Books).

Duke of Wellington without traffic cone (much more respectful in Edinburgh!).Original Leonardo drawings still on at the Queen's Gallery..

Look at that blue sky!

Candles and outside tables in January! Outside of Stocks where we had a very good meal. I was surprised at how busy Edinburgh was - we couldn't get a table at Urban Angel where I had planned to have one of their scrumptious almond croissants for Sunday breakfast. But there are hundreds of places to eat.

We also ate at The Dome. Oh, the high life!

Wonderful! And Freda, what i enjoyed especially about this post were the photos of this great city. My friends from Cape May, NJ spent a week in Edinburgh over Christmas and the New Year; and raved about this incredible city..now you are showing us why!

What fabulous weather for a winter city trip! Hop on and off tour buses are great aren’t they? I’ve used those in London and Paris, although I did somehow manage to get sunburnt in March on the top deck of a Paris one!! Looks like you had a full and fun few days.

We were so very lucky with the weather - it could have been quite a different experience! No fear of sunburn though - too wrapped up against the cold.
