Edinburgh

We spent Friday and Saturday flying to first Amsterdam and then on to Edinburgh--just a short hop away.

As I'm sure you know, the Unicorn is the national animal of Scotland.  You'd think we would have found it everywhere, but not so--not even in all of the souvenier shops.  After all it's a mysterious, mythical beast, so probably out scampering around the highland moors.

Addy--Did we hear a story about how the Unicorn became Scotland's representative?

By the way--note the blue sky.  It rained in the morning.  We never left the hotel without an umbrella, and nearly always stopped to consider carrying rain gear.  Scotland is a wet place.

I loved the bagpipes and the kilts and the bonnets and vests and sad, sad, happy songs.  

Addy, not so much.
