Sights: Edinburgh, from the outside.
The conference began this night.

Main impressions: I woke to see a rainbow - beautiful!
    I spent most of the day planning the rest of the vacation, booking a trip for one of the last days.
    I also ate the local specialties: Haggis (mostly grain and pepper it seems) and Neeps and Tatties (fancy name for turnips and potatoes) and Cranachan (red berries and whipped cream mostly - and oatmeal, which I thought was, you know, porridge, but it was just like flour...).
    I bought a toy bagpipe!
    To rest a little, I also found a cinema and saw "Chicken run". An okay way to spend an afternoon. Watch that gravy pressure! And guess what, the hen gets the rooster in the end...
