Plan so far, going to Edinburgh on Saturday. Will be parking the mini bus at Leith Oceanic Shopping Center and using public transport into the city. Don't want too much luggage so thought K5 and 18-135mm will be adequate. I know it photography related but any hints and tips apart from "don't bother" etc.

You could always walk (or is there an entry fee). Snowdon was included so no idea how much it was.

Thanks for the comments and commiserations. I know there are some fantastic shots to be had. I think it would have helped if I'd had my own transport as coach tours and photography seldom mix.

When on a bicycle, why does the wind always blow from the direction you are going to?

Maybe it's because Blyth is so much further South than Newbiggin

Dear Optimist, Pessimist and Realist,

While you were arguing about the glass of beer, I drank it.

Yours sincerely

If visiting Mt Snowdon be prepared for some awful weather at the summit. Also read the thread elsewhere regarding Pentax WR equipment.

At the summit:

A tourist returns from the summit, soaked to the skin.

In all fairness this was in the middle of summer and we were just unlucky. I have seen photos in guide books etc., of some spectacular views from this area
