Roslyn Chapel

Saturday was an absolutely GORGEOUS day... so gorgeous that I just wanted to bottle the sunshine and save it to combat the inevitable greyness of most days. I got up relatively early and walked around the city, just taking in the atmosphere. The sidewalks were packed, the peope were all smiling, there were students protesting, homeless selling magazines, vendors selling souvenirs... it was a bustling, infectiously joyful, beautiful day.

To make it even better, one of my friends with a car invited me to go to see Roslyn Chapel (yes, the one from the DaVinci Code) nearby. So, five of us packed into the car and enjoyed the excitement of going somewhere new, meeting new people, traveling, sightseeing... all of these things that I love :)

The chapel was beautiful, and all of the stories and conspiracy theories surrounding the symbolism made it all the more interesting. Nearby was a ruined castle, so we walked through the beautiful countryside with a rushing river on one side and a green forest on the other. It was all very picturesque... an absolutely beautiful day. :)
