Saturday 20th May

Another visit to Edinburgh in the rain! At least we only have a short walk to the bus stop to catch the bus, but a longer stroll and lots of steps to our first destination. The underground tours are full today, but we can book for one tomorrow. That done we decided to visit Surgeons hall museum and try to dry out in the cafe first. The museum was wonderful, loads of specimens and a history of surgery. They have a exhibition about the heart and we could see a similar instrument to that used on Lucy's heart. But no photos were allowed in the museum as it contains human body parts. So not for the squimish. I did make a photo of the state outside when we left in sunshine.


A walk through the Grassmarket to find a pub for dinner led us passed a toy shop. Now Brian can't decide which pirate ship to buy Amelia.
