SEE YOU JIMMY!


Well, it's time to bid farewell to Scotland... or perhaps not. I liked it so much here that I decided to stay and keep company to my friend Enrico. And in order to blend in with the locals I decided to buy myself this lovely hat.

Wi a hat like this, ye canna miss!!!

CLOUDY SKY


Clouds always look soooo dramatic in Scotland. The sun is shining but clouds are lurking in George Street.

THE LONE PIPER


I found one! A real Scotsman with kilt and bagpipe!


Or perhaps the real Scotsman is inside the blue box...

A DIFFICULT CHOICE



... couldn't decide between Edinburgh Castle Rock and Tasttee Maid Ices...

MacZANY


What do you think? Should I go for this kilt or should I create my own MacZany tartan?


And then a bit of culture at the National Gallery.

DR JEKYLL AND MR HYDE...


Here I am at Deacon Brodie's Tavern, the place to go for the best haggis in town (so they claim). If you wish to try haggis and don't know what it is, I strongly recommend that you avoid reading the explanation before you actually eat it...

The tavern is named after Deacon Brodie, a Scottish cabinet-maker who had a double life: during the day he was a respectable tradesman, but at night he became a burglar and thief. He inspired R. L. Stevenson's famous book "The strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde".

AROUND THE ROYAL MILE


Here I am again, having a stroll around the Royal Mile. In the background you can see St. Giles' Cathedral.


And this is a view of Victoria Street, with its charming little shops and restaurants.
