| Page Views: 536 Last Visit to Edinburgh: - I Live Here | Edinburgh - My Home by PA68 - last update: Jul 17, 2003 |
I was born and raised in Edinburgh and haven't quite managed to get away. Like anyone, I guess I get a bit bored with the place I live but I suppose it could be worse.
Tourists come to Edinburgh in their hundreds of thousands every year so it must have something to offer.
As I've lived here all my life I guess I should know it was well as most people. I'll attempt to identify some of the spots around town that may not be obvious to the average tourist but are worth checking out. These will most likely be bars, restuarants etc.
As I don't tend to walk about Edinburgh taking pictures the site may be a little bare for a while. It's going to be a work in progress. |

lopaki421 Wed Jul 7, 2004 05:11 UTC As I'm planning my first trip to Edinburgh in Aug, I'm so glad to see your restaurant views sound similar to mine - I love local coffee houses and try to stay away from Starbucks, and those great sounding but reasonable restaurants are a very welcome tip. | Callavetta Tue Jun 29, 2004 14:54 UTC I'm deep in the middle of Ian Rankin's "The Falls" and dying to get back to Edinburgh! I know it's tough to write about your home town but I hope you will! | Reznut Fri Feb 6, 2004 20:29 UTC Oh great! Starbucks invaded Scotland, too? *sigh* ... Enjoying your pages, PA68! I'll be one of the thousands of tourists coming to your town in 2005! | herzog63 Wed Jul 23, 2003 16:03 UTC I've heard so many nice things about Edinburgh!! I had planned to go there but my plans fell through! Someday.....I hope!! |
