Thank you! I went to Holyrood yesterday and it was fabulous. They had to evict me, as the sun came out late in the day and my walk through the gardens was heavenly.
I had been to Cadenhead's already and they were very helpful and informative. I wish they still exported to the US so I could buy birthday presents and such.
I'm afraid I would only be lynched for bringing back fudge for work presents...but perhaps I'll stop in for a small portion for home use anyway.
The Writers Museum was on my maybe list, but Gladstone's Land sounds interesting so perhaps I'll stop in both. I'm really impressed by how many museums feature free admission here. I'm always a bit embarrassed at how much Chicago museums tend to charge for entry.
Thanks so much for the inside info! I spotted yet another Kushi's on Leith Walk the other day, and passed the one where I spotted the sign - confirmed on Broughton Rd. - I wanted to take more pics, but after a brilliantly sunny day it was pouring down rain and I didn't have an umbrella to shelter the camera. They have a great sign too, something about them loving Scotland and Scotland loving Punjabi food in return. Perhaps I'll be by again, though tomorrow is my last day...
