June 13, 1999 - Edinburgh


Walked to Edinburgh Castle. Saw the statues of Robert the Bruce and William Wallace. Mom and I both decided that Robert the Bruce was the attractive one.

Went into the War Memorial...


Did a little shopping around the Castle and down the Royal Mile and bought a celtic ring at the Celtic Craft Center. 

Victoria Street had some great shops, like the Rolling Stone Gallery. They carried, among other things, a selection of polish posters. Wieslaw Walkuski was my favorite and I bought the Romeo i Julia.

On the way back to the b&b that night we passed Common Grounds; my uncle and another aunt owned a coffee shop at the time that had the same name.
