To Edinburgh

Today we headed south to Edinburgh


First stop was Pitlochry...


..a nice old world village..


..with a lovely river and fascinating dam with a fish ladder, and salmon fishermen







....video in the fish ladder


Next stop was Dunkeld, for lunch by the Tay River..




..and a stroll around the 13th century cathedral







And village


Near Edinburgh we crossed the Firth of Forth bridge


Before arriving at our rental in the Leith district of Edinburgh



Late afternoon we walked to the Port area via the Water of Leith Path 



A nesting swan..


..and a female merganser duck on the way 


The port area has been undergoing gentrification, to good effect






There were plenty of pubs, so we had to visit one




We walked home via the main road into Leith, it was obvious it was an ongoing rejuvenation project
