Road Trip Part 2: Scotland

We spent a couple of days in Scotland, first in the beautiful city of Edinburgh.
Edinburgh Castle
Elephant House coffee shop, where J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter

We felt so lucky to just happen upon highland games happening near Edinburgh in Highgate.
Throwing the stane
We made a brief stop at Roslin Chapel, which plays an important part in The Da Vinci Code (both the book and the movie), but aside from the fictional connections, it's a beautiful little church.
