Edinburgh is like a fairy tale... so old, with nooks and crannies every which way. We are staying directly behind the Old Tollbooth. We went on a two hour tour of the Royal Mile and learned many interesting stories of the past. At one time, Edinburgh was the most crowded city in the world! Folks could never leave the inner city because they could not afford to pay the toll to get back in. There's a street corner named the End of the World, because that's as far as most people ever made it. The official royal palace is here... As well as a very fortified castle. The home of many well known authors and poets and the famed John Knox, theologian. Absolutely incredible.\
