We spent much of the day light in the Edinburgh Castle. Not sure what to say about the topic. It is really old and really cool. You will just have to come and check it out yourself.
In the evening we participated in a torch light parade. We didn't really think they were literally giving a couple thousand people torches (maybe little candles), but we were wrong. With the wind gusts it was actually rather dangerous, but we had fun. Everyone kept looking over their shoulders to make sure the idiots behind them wasn't about to turn their hair into another torch. The parade ended up on a hill where some effigies were burnt. Yes...We made my folk participate in a semi pagan festival on their anniversary... but at least it was for charity:)
The day was capped off with some anniversary Twinkies and a few pints of ale. Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad.

Thanks for the update. It is always fun to see what you are up to and how great to share it with the family. I have not talked to your folks yet but will call them this weekend. Is Darren still with you?
Enjoy your weekend.
Aunt Irene
