Edinbrrrrrah

We took a six hour train ride from London to Edinburgh, which isn't pronounced like it is spelled.  It looks like Ed-in-burg but is pronounced Ed-in-burr-ah.  The brrrrr part is still holding true for this trip, it's cold, wet wnd windy here too.  There has been a strong east wind all across Britain and that results in the conditions we've seen.  According to BBC weather that isn't going to change anytime soon so we'll just stay bundled up.  Hooray for layers!
A hop-on hop-off bus tour helped us get acclimated quickly.  We spent quite a bit of time in the castle, and then walking the Royal Mile down to Holyrood Palace and back up the hill again.  We ate lunch at the White Hart, the oldest pub in Edinburgh.
