| December 6th is Darryl's birthday so, for his 30th birthday, we went to Edinburgh for a long weekend. It's a beautiful city with so much to see both in the city and just outside | ||

At the top of the 'Lang Steps' looking down toward the city and beyond it to the Firth of Forth |
Each day the one o'clock gun sounds over the city from the battlements of the castle (shame about the guy in front of me!) |

| The big wheel in the centre of the city each Christmas time. Fantastic views from the top |
Darryl on the wheel on it's way up which is why he is still smiling. He doesn't like heights! |
And a cup of tea was needed afterwards - this is in our hotel room |
| And here's a panoramic view from the castle (large file - approx 500k) |
