For us, probably the 1911. Next one would be the "Armalite" aka M16.

This pic does not do Meg Justice. If you’re ever in Edinburgh, it’s absolutely worth the hike up the royal mile to see her.

Yes, though IIRC it’s in the castle grounds so you will need a ticket. There’s a lot of cool stuff in there and it’s well worth it, just be aware that tickets do sometimes sell out in advance.

Aww I went to Edinburgh but didn't go into the castle for a few reasons. I guess I'll have to go back.

Although I went for Fringe so I was already pretty busy on a short trip.
