In and around Edinburgh

Today Bill and I figured out how to get around, for the next few days.  The terrible traffic and impossible parking situation dissuaded us from renting a car.  We visited the train station, and made plans for tomorrow, but there wasn’t enough time today for a train venture.  So, we took the bus to Rosslyn.

Waiting for our bus to arrive.  It is a constant stream of busses, all day long.

We finished up the day with my favorite dessert, and a walk through the Edinburgh Christmas festival

Oh, how I love my Toffee pudding, especially with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.  Yum!

Someone is getting in the mood for Christmas, but I'm not sure it is the dog.
