Edinburgh

So here I am in Edinburgh. I travelled by train from Manchester. Usually I fly, but today I set out at 7.45 and arrived a few minutes ago - a longish walk, a metro ride, two trains, then another longish uphill walk. Just a load of steps to go down now.

Still I'm here at last and the train ride along the coast had some great scenery. I've just taken this perfect Japanese tourist picture; Edinburgh castle AND a red post-box, all it needs is the smiling, bowing tourist.

After I've sent this with my MDA I'm going to walk down Sally steps and check into my hotel. I really need a cup of tea.
