Edinburgh, Scotland

Today really don't have that mood to elaborate further on this trip, so just enjoy viewing my picture...or you ask me privately how pretty Edinburgh is...

Scott MonumentScotland traditional costume - Kilt(checked skirt)

Then took a half-an-hour train to North Berwick, a seaside town east of Edinburgh...

Sea is just opposite these terrace house, a nice view indeed...thinking of migrating to here when I am old...Tantallon Castle, North Berwick (Entrance fee isn't free)This town is tranquil and relaxing...really like it very much even I compare it with Kampung in Malaysia.

Took train again back to Edinburgh, just 5pm and the sky was so dark already...Followed some mates and local went to pub in Scotland...I remember this pin of beer just cost me 1.75pound...which is very cheap for them, but it''s not cheap for me!!!The Hub

1/4 update: I just read newspaper today stating that this hotel Room 652 is the place where J.K Rowling finished her last book of Harry Potter and the Deadly Hallow in January....can you feel the aura of harry potter?haha...
Edinburgh is called the city of spires...I'm sure you know why by looking at this picture...

Next up: Glasgow and London
