A view out of the third floor window of my Hotel room. The window was kept open and I loved leaning out to listen to the birds and look about.
Many Slate Roofs found in Dalkeith. Beautiful!
With a large elderly community, second hand shops found scattered in townsell items to raise funds to assist.
What a great idea to raise money for different causes. This is one of several shops I saw scattered around town.
There are quite a few retirement homes and apartments I took note of. This community seeks to accomodate the aging population.
A lovely castle type entrance to the Archway Lodge.
Some of the modern conveniences a hotel room supplies that we take for granted. Hurray,..a desk, complementary coffee, tea and cookies, a built in blowdryer and an alarm clock! What luxury money can buy, far from the comforts of home. ;)
