The Clan split up on this day. I took the two younger boys to the Edinburgh Zoo and Craig and Evan went to Roslyn Chapel (the chapel in The DaVinci Code) with Gran, Gramps, Vicki, Wendy & Melina. As an aside, they weren't allowed to take any photos and overall, the group was unimpressed with the chapel.
Finn, Owen and I had a good day and survived our train to bus to zoo transfer and the huge thunderstorm (thank goodness for storm-frenzied monkeys). The best part was the parade of the penguins. Penguins start lining up at the door when they see the zookeepers arrive. Then the zookeepers open the door to the penguins' enclosure and some penguins file out and then they parade around the grassy area nearby. It took about 10 minutes from start to finish and was very unique. Finn took over the photographer duties and these are the fruits of his labor.
This is how we all felt at the end of the day.
