In my previous post I mentioned how my work had sent me to Austin a few times over the previous months. Well, they wanted me to do another trip, and this one a bit more adventurous - setting up a new environment in our Linlithgow, Scotland office!
Linlithgow is a small town a little ways outside of Edinburgh in the southwest of Scotland. The only hotel in town was no longer open, so I stayed in downtown Edinburgh and took the train in every day. It was about three miles of walking to and from the train station each day, so I got in a fair bit of exercise too!
This is Loch Linlithgow with Linlithgow Palace in the background. I walked by here every day on the way to and from the office and the train station.
I was there almost three weeks total. Of course we didn't have to work weekends, so that allowed for a bit of fun...
This is a cemetery in the courtyard of The Parish Church of St. Cuthbert. Edinburgh Castle is in the background. The cemetery was about a quarter mile from my hotel.
St. John's Episcopal Church. I like the crescent moon that was out at the time!
Edinburgh Castle at night. Loaded with tourists during the day, and completely empty once its dark!
Castlehill Road - the main drag leading up to Edinburgh Castle. Tourist touts galore during the day.

Amazing shots! It's okay if I live vicariously through you sometimes, right?
I'm with Brein...I live vicariously through you as well. In fact, I find myself actually getting jealous from time to time....just being honest!!
