Edinburgh: Gardens and the Scottish Parliament bui

At the Botanical Garden we met fellow Blipper Terracotta. We had a coffee and chat about her wonderful time on the Shetlands followed by a wander around the plants. The day was warm enough to eat lunch outside having taken a number of shots of plants and each other.
It was lovely to meet you Terracota!
John and I then headed off to look for the Scottish Parliament building, the aim was to take a bus to save the leg, apparently not possible for us and eventually walked over to Hollyrood for a welcome cup of coffee - the cheapest found so far at 1.90 a cup. It was ok.

There is wifi in the cafe hence the blip and we have a ticket for the debating chamber in a few minutes.
