We visited the Cathedral first but there was some restoration going on and a photography permit costs £2 so I didn't think it was worth it. Hence no photos of the Cathedral.
Lastly before leaving Edinburgh, we stopped at the National Museum of Scotland. By this point, Steve had blisters on his feet and I could barely go up or even down any stairs my legs were so sore, lol. So we only browsed the first and second floor before giving up. We used the audio guide but it was disappointing compared to the one at the Palace. There was only about 6 items on it. At least it was free.
On our way out of Edinbugh, we stopped in the village of Roslin, home to Rosslyn Chapel. It's become more famous for being featured in The Da Vinci Code (both book and movie) but that's not the only reason I wanted to visit it. It's a beautiful chapel in it's own right - there's a reason it was chosen to be featured in the Da Vinci Code.
Unfortunately, there was no photography allowed inside the chapel and outside, the chapel was under extensive restoration so that was disappointing. You can see how difficult it was to get any photos without the restoration showing:
We then grabbed some fish and chips at the restaurant of Roslin Glen Hotel. It was easily the BEST fish and chips I've ever had!
So that's the end of our trip! I think we packed in a lot and both had a great time. I was sad to leave but I am now looking forward to Jamaica! I'm still working on the videos but they will be up soon!
