Abbey ruins attached to Palace and royal gardens


Holyrood Palace. Queeny wasn't in when I knocked for a cuppa...out walking the corgies!

Princes Park. (divides Old and New town)

Was an old Loch which cut through the town, gathering raw sewerage etc centuries ago...hence the name given to Ed 'Old Reekie' it reeked! Was drained and now beautiful peaceful park.
