Arthur's Seat

A couple weeks ago Amy and I decided to take a walk up to the top of Arthur's Seat, the tallest hill in Edinburgh. It is very close to Amy's flat. It only took us about 20 minutes to walk there. I had been up there before towards the beginning of term. I went with my flatmates and a large group of other international students. Unfortunately though I had forgotten my camera.

The view from the top is beautiful. Unfortunately the day we went up it was very, very windy. I felt like I was going to be blown off when we got to the top. We could barely move because of the wind. Consequently I didn't manage to take too many pictures.

It rained on and off while we climbed up to the top. By the time we had reached the top a rainbow had come out. You can kind of see it here:
