Around Edinburgh (1)


 

 

 

 
After a 10 km walk (a similar distance  to yesterday's strolling) to the waterfront at Leith, we enjoyed a self-guided tour around the Royal Yacht Britannia, which has been here since being decommissioned in 1997. The bottom two pictures show the boat and the state dining room. The tea room was excellent.

On the way there, we paused at the observatory and some nearby columns (top picture), before heading across town to the Water of Leith (second picture, with a sculpture that looks as if it has been stolen from Crosby) and thence to the fleshpots of the waterfront for lunch.

The number 22 bus delivered us back to town, for a 2 km stroll to Southpour restaurant, which proved to be a good choice. Then we adjourned to our room for some more athletics.
