The next picture is Princes Street, this is a main street of the city, but you can see it is a little under construction. They are building a new Tram and I haven't met a single Scot that is happy about this. The bus system is great and I guess they ripped up a tram system 50 years ago that was one of the best in the world for the buses.
Right here I am to the left of that Art museum walking towards school and to my left is the view of the city. The Bridge is the North Bridge and is the main road through the city.
A little more of the same view.
Standing in the same place looking up to New College and looking to the Playfriar Steps that is coming..
A closer look at the stairs, I will not have to worry about working out too much. This is just the beginning with the stairs, once I am in the school I have about 10 flights of stairs to climb. I think I will count them the next time I go up.
This is view of Edinburgh Castle at the top of Playfriar Steps. Picture isn't great, but it is an incredible thing to look at.
View to the north and Newtown, and at the gates of New College.

Looking up to the quad of New College
This is a stone tile in the quad. It is apparently the well of Queen Margaret's palace that once stood near by. It dates to the 12th century. I am not sure about the exclamation point.

Thanks for the tour, Searight Clan. It looks like an amazing place. I pray that God really blesses your ministry and studies and family during this time.
We miss you...even though you did beat me in fantasy football...
