We’ve had a wonderful time in Edinburgh and there’s such a fun vibe to the city, I could stay for another week but we’re heading to the Highlands. We explored as much as we could in our two days here but there’s so much left to see and do.

Love seeing Tartan everywhere ~ including on the public bus CCTV screen

Another plus about Edinburgh is the vast number of restaurants. We had a traditional Scottish Breakfast in the am, Turkish food for lunch, and Japanese food for dinner. All delicious! As we walked down the Royal Mile we realized it was lunchtime and stopped in at Cafe Truva (Turkish Mediterranean food). It was an excellent choice! Good service and yummy food.
Cafe Truva Spinach and Feta wrap ~ delicious!
We’re hoping to return in June. Hiking to the top of Arthur’s Seat, the National Museum of Scotland are at the top of the to do list.

Thanks ~ glad you like the photos. Edinburgh is still my favorite in Scotland but Inverness is beautiful too. We’re heading to Glasgow tomorrow which I’ve heard has a lot of charm too. We’ll see.

I bet it is cold. Even when I was there in the summer we wore long sleeves and layers most days. Hope you have a great time in Glasgow.
