Greetings from Edinburgh

I'm having a marvelous time in Edinburgh! The Old Town is quite beautiful and the sights from atop the Edinburgh Castle are breathtaking! In the castle I got to see 'The Stone of Sestiny'--the seat of Scone, upon which the historic Macbeth was crowned.

Also toured the Scotch Whisky exhibition--a Disney-like attraction, where you travel through the history of scotch whisky in a huge keg. The free samples afterward were a real treat, too!

So far the food's been terrific: a fish soup made with scotch, a delicious shank of lamb and jumbo grilled sardines.

The only problems I'm having is that everything here is uphill. Doesn't that defy the laws of nature?

I leave for Loch Ness later today.

Ciao!

Have you played any golf there yet???

Isn't Edinburgh Castle magnificent? Make sure you get to Hollyrood House Palace down the other end of the Royal Mile. That is where David Rizzio was murdered.

I was just there again in April, DP. I love the burg! However, my favorite spot in all of Scotland is Inverness. It's daylight 20 hours per day and the people are amazingly friendly. Did you get felt up at the kilt fitting? Give my best to Nessie.

Are you going to try a wee bit o' Haggis????

And...did you see Nessie??? See if he/she is interested in having their life story adapted for the stage! :o)
