UK 2007: Edinburgh (Part two)

On my second day in Edinburgh I first went to the castle which makes the city
famous. After that there was plenty of walking around town, which hopefully

Part two of my Edinburgh photos after the link.

UK 2007: Edinburgh (Part one)

I’ve got so many photos from the fabulous city of Edinburgh that I have to

UK 2007: English Countryside

After my walk around Regents Park, I took the train out to Guildford to meet

car and toured around the beautiful Surrey and Sussex countryside, stopping
in some very old
villages.

UK 2007: London by Night

Per Phil’s recommendation, I took a late night stroll along the Thames, between
roughly Parliament and the Blackfriers Bridge. Follow the link to see the pics!

UK 2007: Windsor

Yesterday, my friend Phil (of dpreview fame) and I made a quick stop in Windsor.
It would’ve been a longer stop had the castle actually been open. Anyhow, here
are some pics from around "town".
