Day 9: Holyrood castle
We wandered over to Carlton Hill and checked out the monument for Lord Nelson. We walked up the tower (143 steps) to the top and had a decent view of the city and the castles.
Our plan for today was to check out the Holyrood Castle (http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/page559.asp), so we went down the royal mile this time.
Walking past this old school (really gives meaning to "old School") T and I were talking about how old it was when these 2 kids who were hiding behind the stone fence jumped up and yelled "BOO!". I'm sure they heard T scream quite a ways away. What was it she called the kids after that? oh ya, "little stinkers". I'm sure that wasn't the first choice.
Of all the nerve. We come all this way to have tea with Liz and she's not home. She was nice enough to let us have a look around her summer shack though. What a place. Parts of the castle date back to the 1100s.
