Scotland in February. Weather in February was not very friendly, rainy and overcast. But we still decided on a long trip by car in the direction of a country that has long attracted me. We drove 10 hours, stopping in the very beautiful city of York, and on the way back to town giving.

But now an Edinburgh. The air was mist and because of this city seemed even more bleak and gray, but that did not stop us from enjoying walks on such an old and interesting city. These buildings and houses of blue-gray stone breathed great history and keeps a lot of secrets. I froze a little bit, but walking through the streets of Edinburgh with pleasure and wanted to see as much as possible.
