Away with the Fairies- The Travel Diary of an Irish WebFairy

Here are some more pics from Greyfriars Kirk! Some of the tombs were unbelievable! The Archaeologist and history buff in me has a morbid fascination with Cemeterys and Graveyards... old ones to be exact!



















So i got a bit excited in Greyfriars when the sun popped out to say hello on the sunday and took a picture!


This is the site of the old Edinburgh prisonbooth. Traditionally people would spit into the centre of the heart... some people (unfortunately) still do...


The Royal Mile


the walkway into Advocates Close

St. Giles Cathedral in the sun. you can actually see the yellow sandstone of not just the cathedral, but most of the other buildings in the old town better in the sunshine.


Only a few yards from the Cathedral
