All well worth the visit - 10/10

When I was 12 my family took a vacation from the States to Scotland to visit relatives. We took a side trip to Edinburgh. A beautiful city and a fantastic Castle. I was very impressed! We went everywhere that was open to the public, down into the old prison area, as well as into a museum. I don't recall the name of the museum, but I do remember seeing a piece of chocolate that was left over from the Boer war I believe, it didn't look to tasty.
I also took several pictures of all the cannon, including Mons Meg (I'm not sure on the spelling). The monster cannon that looks out over the Firth. I would love to go again someday. They were getting ready for the Tattoo as well, unfortunately we didn't get to stay for that.
