I had french classes yesterday so didn't have time to make a posting. But here are the pictures from yesterday's adventures. I got a new bike (which I love!) and was zooming about town yesterday.

Duck habitat at Blackford Pond.

University of Edinburgh Observatory Builiding. This observatory is on Blackford Hill, the highest point is 539 m (I assume that it is in meters but since I'm in Briton, the units can be anything, perhaps even something the rest of the world doesn't use.) I biked half way up and then travelled the rest on foot paths. I saw small little dried poos everywhere so there might have been either sheep or rabbits on this hill at some point.

This is a view of the city center from Blackford Hill. I was also interested in the sky in this picture as well. The object sticking up over the sky line on the left hand side of the picture is Sir Walter Scott's monument (I think).

I was facinated by the little garden plots at the bottom of the picture. This is a view of the 'burbs' of Edinburgh.

This is a picture of the Lion's Haunch. You can see the Lion's head at the upper left hand corner.
