Edinburgh Castle

 We started our day at Edinburgh Castle.  A not to be missed place in Scotland.  It houses the royal apartments, the crown jewels, an ancient chapel, and amazing views of Edinburgh.

Edinburgh is a huge city





This chapel was built in 1130!




We also had some great meals today.  I am not one for trying lots of different stuff but you really should when you travel.

Lunch at The Elephant House where JK Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books

Breakfast at a cute cafe
