Jules and myself took some time last week to get around a few places we wanted to see before we go. We managed to get in a climb up the Scott Monument, a walk past the Art Gallery, up through Lady Stairs Close and on to see the tribute to Greyfriars Bobby, a visit to Bobby’s grave in the cemetary, and a quick trip through the National Museum of Scotland. By the time we’d finished we were tired and hungry, so we ended up with a good lunch (and a couple of beers for me) in a bar on the Mound.

We ended up the night out with friends and came second in the pub quiz before getting home and eating re-heated Haggis around 2AM. Does it get any better than this?
