Off to the UK w/o Howie pt 6


A bit out of order....more pictures of Holy Island........boats turned into storage.



The Lindisfarne Castle, on the island.


The road that gets covered by the tide...you can see it starting to come up to the road.




A view of Bamburgh Castle...very impressive in its size.


We had dinner with Alan's in-laws, and Harris got to taste 4 different whiskeys. He decided he liked the Highland Park the best.



Susan and Keith Hodgson..great hosts and a wonderful meal.




A first glimpse of Edinburgh. We took a hop on-hop off bus tour to get an overview of the city.







Street performers..Harris appreciated the ones that weren't bagpipers!



Inside St. Giles Cathedral...a beautiful church. We were pleasantly surprised to hear a girls' choir from Oslo, Norway performing in the cathedral. Gorgeous voices reverberating in the spacious stone interior.


A view of Edinburgh Castle.




Going down some side streets...



A great way to sell Pulled Pork!



Harris thought the contrast of a "Hen Party" (which we call bachlorette party) with the harp player was cool.
