Holiday 2008 - EdinburghTrue Knowledge

# Back from Edinburgh

Personal @ 19 June 2008

Some of you already know, but for those who don’t know.. I am now back from my holiday in Edinburgh.

It was a very nice holiday, we had a very relaxing time and acted quite touristy.

Places we went to see:

  • St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral (A Scottish Episcopal Cathedral)
  • Rosslyn Chapel (A Scottish Episcopal Parish Church, but better known globally for its supposed links to masonry popularised by books such as Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code)
  • St Johns Church (A Scottish Episcopal Church in the centre of Edinburgh, it has really really lovely stained glass windows)
  • St Giles Cathedral (A Church of Scotland Cathedral. The café sells good lunch for good prices)
  • Freemasons’ Hall (Grand Lodge of Scotland)
  • Royal Mile (from Castle to the Holyrood Abbey)

We did, of course, see Edinburgh Castle… except we didn’t go in because we didn’t see the point in paying about £25 in total to have a look inside. We really didn’t mind, we looked around the Castle Shop instead.

We didn’t take many photos, but I am sure we’ll upload them soon.
