Edinburgh Sights

Sunday we did some more respectable sights, the Georgian House at Charlotte Square and the Gladstone Tenement on Royal Mile, as well as more walking and gawking.
 
One quadrant of Charlotte Square
 
 
 
The National Trust for Scotland is at #7, the
restored Georgian House at #6, and the Book
Festival office is at #5; pretty neat address,
even if in the basement
 
 
 
 
 
Gladstone's tenements, a somewhat restored
look at life on the Royal Mile in the 17th and
18th centuries, for the wealthy as well as the
indigent
 
 
 
 
 
Gladstone's (no relation to the PM); note outside
staircase on left
