We visited the Royal Botanical Gardens, as the title indicates As previously noted, I’m more interested in human artifacts, so I took few photos
This first one is an Aolian harp. That means it should be sounded by the wind.
The Queen Mother’s Memory Garden. I was taken by the window arches as much as by the roses.
Garden cottage moved & rebuilt.
We’re not really done with John Muir.
These are little giant sequoias.
Then we went shopping. Bill Murray offers my new philosophy outside a pub on Rose St.
The sorting hat on Victoria Street.
More inspiration on the outside of a building.
I did not expect to encounter Frederick Douglass in Edinburgh.
Impressive Celtic Cross.
I bought a Black Watch tartan kilt.
We leave early tomorrow.
“There’s no leaving Edinburgh, No shifting it around: it stays with you, always.”
Alan Bold
“And yet the place establishes an interest in people’s hearts; go where they will, they find no city of the same distinction.”
Robert Louis Stevenson
