Arthur's Seat
Arthur's Seat is the highest point of Holyrood Park in Edinburgh. This 251m summit is a remnant of a long-extinct volcano. Apparently this was the former hunting ground of Scottish monarchs. The climb up actually only took about 40 minutes, and the view was beautiful!
Pictured above is the national emblem of Scotland--the thistle. Off in the blurry distance towards the right is Edinburgh Castle.
Here we are at the top!! It was cold and windy!!
Fortunately we did not experience any falling rocks!

I wish I'd gone up there when I'd been in Edinburgh! I didn't even know about it. Y'all keep finding such cool things; you should write a travel book. :)
