Now that's a castle properly set upon a cliff.
A view through the trees of Edinburgh.
More Edinburgh.
One of the many buildings within the castle walls.
These Scots know what's important.
Small chapel within the castle.
Inside this building is the most impressive and touching war memorial I've ever seen. It honors the Scottish soldiers who died in WWI.
The castle has a commanding view.
Classic castle view.
Down a tiny little 'close' - we'd call it an alley - we found Hume's digs. Too bad it is so ugly, huh?
Always working, Fiona found this memorial honoring Abe and the Scottish that died in the U.S. Civil War.
Memorial Detail.
Ruins of St. Anthony's Chapel. This chapel dates back to earlier than 1425. It would have been 13 meters tall and 5.5 meters wide. The inside would have had three bays, and the tower would have stood over 12 meters tall, with a spiral staircase inside.
