Hit Scotland at last.


We have finally hit Scotland, we are staying in a lovely hotel just outside of Edinburgh. We stayed last night in York, a walled city with lots of history right back to Roman times.
 Avebury stone circle, a lot larger then Stonehenge, so big that they have a town in the middle of it.
 Stones from the circle, sheep graze amongst the stone.
 Clifton Tower in York
 One of the gates in the city wall in York.
