Day 9 in Scotland, April 2. (There are 3 other new posts after this one.)

Another day in Edinburgh...

We hiked to Arthur's Seat, a 251 meter summit overlooking Edinburgh.























Dairy Cream with chocolate flake. We are bringing some chocolate flake home with us. It is great in coffee, too!

After the hike, we went to the Writers' Museum which celebrates the lives of Sir Walter Scott, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Robert Burns, Scotland's most famous writers.
The next two pictures are for Mimi!

More shopping and bargaining with street vendors in Edinburgh.

Brian had mussels for dinner at The Mitre, a pub recommended to us by the Frasier family. Thanks for the tip!
Hat shopping for Madison. She finally found one she liked and that fit!
