Two and half days in Edinburgh and a lot to see and do. As a girl I watched a movie called Greyfriars Bobby( you can still get it on d.v.d)(and I still cry over it)it was a bucket list item to come and see his statue and his and his masters graves.

 The Palace Guards cared for Bobby when his master died. the taught him to listen for the cannon going of at one and he would come and hide under the table grave stones until dark and then he would go to sleep on his Masters grave.

To start the ball rolling.
