Enjoy our short video about Edinburgh, Scotland:

I recently flew British Airway from Newark and spent a week in beautiful Edinburgh Scotland. My driver Robert took me to The Witchery by The Castle on an impressive scenic tour to the Old Town. What a gracious thing for him to do, he is very proud of Edinburgh as he should be. Over the week I was immersed in a quaint city and surroundings, with a medieval history dating back for many centuries.  I became quite fascinated with Mary Queen of Scotts, all the delicious pubs, scenic drives with Lochs surrounded by snow capped mountains and sheep grazing on green pastures. There were romantic hotels with harpists and hight teas and interesting architecture! This beautiful city is where the old town meets seamlessly with the new town. Walking the Royal Mile was one of my favorite things to do and walking on Princes Street from the Balmoral Hotel through the garden passing by the Scott Monument to the nearby National Gallery was lovely. I toured castles, gardens, Holyrood Palace, The Highlands, Lochs, chocolate shops, whisky tours, food tours, shopped in the countryside for kilts and tartans, North Sea, the Firth of Forth, visited museums and more. This charming city is rich in culture, lore, food, scenery and kind people. I am continually delighted to meet the loveliest people around the world on my travels. As a travel lifestyle writer and editor this means so much to me and greatly enhances the beauty and content of our Sunday Guides. Touring gardens, visiting flower shops, fashion exhibits and boutiques inspires my designs for my wonderful clients. We hope our Sunday Guides inspire you to travel and create beautiful moments in your day.
