So long as you're in the center of the city (Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh Castle, Royal Mile etc), I wouldn't worry about anything like that. There's always a way to get around the central city. Also, we've had bugger all snow and it didn't stop the buses when it did come.
Well we were planning on going across to the Castle so we may well stop by the Gardens on the way! My only worry is if it decides to start snowing and we can't get anywhere xD (Seeing as we're gonna drive up to Edinburgh and stay in a cottage just outside)
It's impossible to miss Princes Street Gardens - the main street is Princes Street, and one side of the road is the shops and the other is the Gardens, and just beyond the Gardens is Edinburgh Castle, lording over the city.
I'll make a note of those then! I recognise the name Princes Street Gardens.. Was that where you proposed? xD We should be there for about a week! Meeting up and having a drink sounds good! ^^
If it's good weather, feel free to go up Calton Hill as the view is pretty awesome. Arthur's Seat is also pretty epic but more of a struggle for many to climb. Princes Street Gardens are lovely, there's a Butterfly & Insect World you can get a bus to which is pretty great if you feel like holding a tarantula or snake (don't worry, you don't have to do that, it's awesome anyway). But mostly just enjoy yourselves. Will you be staying long? Maybe we'll be able to meet up for a drink or something if time allows for the both of us. =]
Mr BoB! Me and my girlfriend are gonna be coming up to Edinburgh in February. Bar the usual Zoo/Museums/Castle is there anywhere that you'd recommend visiting?
That's what happens when you go to your girlfriends for the weekend xD Thanks for the heads up!
Just passing this out to some of the regulars who don't seem to be keeping up with the thread: Don't forget, you can increase your chances of winning that poster by doing the daily tasks mentioned in the poster giveaway thread. Keep an eye on things as your chances go up pretty high depending on this - and if you don't do any of the tasks your chances will obviously drop due to others doing those tasks!
And here was me about to neg/gently remind you of our ongoing duel of epic proportions (aka a small game of Triple Triad) when I notice you have made your next move. You are a sly, mind reading man aren't you
Maybe...or maybe the public one
