Royal Yacht Britannia & Edinburgh Zoo

Hi Everyone

I don't have anything crafty to share today, but I thought you might like to see some photos from our recent trip to Edinburgh.  It was a very short visit - just one night.  I wanted to go to see the Giant Pandas at Edinburgh Zoo so hubby took me (and the kids of course) and we also managed to visit the Royal Yacht Britannia.

We took hundreds of photos, but here are a few of my favourites.

These are from The Royal Yacht Britannia
