Auld Reekie

The medieval city was built along and around the Royal Mile and the spine of the volcanic upthrust that culminates in the Castle. St. Giles Cathedral, the Writer's Museum, and many little pubs in nooks and crannies are there for exploring.

Hey, there's me! (And my weird short haircut.) The funniest thing about these pictures for me, is revisiting the clothes that I (and everyone else) wore day in and day out. I recognize Julie's striped trousers and Ann Marie's green coat and Chris's sweatshirt... I actually still have the entire outfit I'm wearing in the pub picture, and I still wear all the parts, although never together. It's a little nostalgic.
