| | Travelogue: EDINBURGH, Scotland | | 2008-02-21 04:07:41 | | While daydreaming of better days, I thought I'd share some of my travel stories. One special place lives happily ever after in my memory. Edinburgh is a city that delights the mind as well as the eye. It is a city where the past lives comfortably with the present.If staying in one of the city's central hotels, nothing brings more pleasure than exploring Edinburgh's beautiful historic streets on foot.Like Rome, Edinburgh was built on seven hills. Rising above Princess street (the main shopping promenade), is the castle rock, a volcanic plug where the first defensive settlement was founded over 2,000 years ago, and a landmark to anyone who is lost. To the south, The Royal Mile, probably Edinburgh's oldest street, runs through the old town, beyond the Flodden Wall and towards the parkland of Hollyrood.... | | By: Lady Greenthumb's garden | | |
| | ABC Wednesday - Dahlia 'Edinburgh' | | 2008-02-20 07:33:03 | | Formal Decorative DahliaDahlia 'Edinburgh'(DAHL-ya)If you are here for Wordless Wednesday please scroll down to the next post. Thanks for visiting.This Dahlia was a good performer last year often blooming in great flushes. The flowers seemed to be slightly variable between the different plants but all were very handsome. It was first propagated in the UK in 1950, so I guess it is a ‘classic’ by now. There are over 40,000 Dahlia cultivars to choose from and I usually grow about 10-15 different ones each year.Dahlias are grouped into 10 classes, which you can see by clicking here . There are also 13 color classifications.This one is a film scan from a trip to England I took a couple of years ago. I am pretty sure that was the last black and white film I have shot. So for an extra E here is the London Eye.Here is my ABC Blogroll. If you want to be included please leave a comment to that effect. This project has grown exponentially and it is tough to keep up.

| | Edinburgh Castle, Scotland | | 2007-07-14 06:07:44 | | The history of Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle
Each day a cannon is fired at one o’clock. Edinburgh Castle is one of the oldest and most famous castles in the world.The castle dominates the city centre skyline and overlooks Princes Street. The Edinburgh Military Tattoo takes place on the castle Esplanade each year. Here Mary Queen of Scots gave birth to a son James who became King James VI of Scotland and James first of England.
Two hundred year old graffiti in Edinburgh Castle’s prison vaults is one of the inspirations behind the development of a major new exhibition within the castle which will explore the castle’s connections with the American War of Independence as well as 18th century European conflicts including the French Revolution, through the stories of the men who found themselv... | | By: UniQuest | | |
