Without meaning to, we chose the worst of our 4 days in Edinburgh to trek up Arthur's seat. Although the weather wasn't glorious, it didn't rain (or snow) and as we were walking up a giant hill we kept warm through the exertion! It's a fairly easy climb up (especially compared to some of the mountains I'd climbed before in Korea). Once at the top, we had a great view over the city and out across the estuary.
On our way back down, we passed by a small church with an old step for mounting a horse, and chains for holding prisoners. Before getting the bus back around to the city we also saw the house where Bonny Prince Charlie held his final council before heading in to battle. Yet again, Edinburgh provided some beautiful landscape for photos.
