What to do in Edinburgh 1. WHEN IT'S RAINING go to Edinburgh Castle
Edinburgh Castle is a very old building, high on a hill in the centre of Edinburgh. You can take a tour of the castle or walk around on your own. You can see many interesting exhibitions, including the Scottish Kings and Queens of the past, and the National War Museum. If the sun comes out, you have a fantastic view of the shops and buildings on Edinburgh's famous street, the Royal Mile.
2. WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING go to Arthur's Seat
Arthur's Seat is a high hill in the centre of Edinburgh with excellent views of the city. You can choose an easy walk or a difficult walk to the top, depending on how fit you are. From the top you can see all of Edinburgh's famous monuments including the Castle, the Royal Mile, and Holyrood Palace. It's the perfect place to take some great photos of the city.
3. WHEN IT'S COLD go to Princess Street at New York
New Year has a different name in Scotland: Hogmanay - and the Hogmanay Party in Princes Street - is famous all over the world. Over four days, thousands of people join in the fun in the street, and you can buy hot food and drinks all night. At midnight, everyone sings a traditional New Year's song called Auld Lang Syne, and then they watch some fantastic fireworks from Edinburgh Castle.

I was happy to receive your letter. Thank you for wonderful photos. They are really amazing and I love looking through them again and again. It is sad to get to know that you've broke up with Dave. You were a cool couple.
In my case, I am fine and doing well. I have a lot of things to do at school to finish this semester successfully. I need to be perfect at many subjects to pass exams and enter the college of my dream.
