More Vacation Pics: Scotland Edition



Well, faithful readers, here are some more pictures from my travels. The first two are taken from atop Calton Hill in Edinburgh, which I must say is kind of a bitch to climb when one is feeling the after-effects of a night of conversation and wine that included all present singing "Waltzing Matilda" before it was through.


























Then, we have Edinburgh Castle in a picture taken from just beside the Sir Walter Scott Monument. While in Edinburgh we also visited David Hume's grave, and we had a fabulous dinner.









The final picture is also Scotland, but it's not quite a "scenic vista" sort of a picture, but rather a picture that I think does capture the more social aspects of my trip. Ah, love the lovely traveling with friends. Love the lovely non-work travel.

Is that my soulmate, Genghis, rolling a j? =)

Dr. Crazy said...

In fact, Genghis rolls his own cigarettes (see tobacco on table), as do many in the UK because cigarettes cost like a million dollars a pack.

Damn, that means he really is my soulmate. I always end up with the wahoos who roll their own cigarettes. (Does he shave with an old-fashioned straight razor, too? I bet you anything he does.)

Dr. Crazy said...

I don't know about the straight razor, but yes, he is your soulmate. I knew this from the first moment that I saw him. (Funny how I can spot soulmates for my friends a mile away but that I cannot spot them for myself.)
