Take a virtual tour of Edinburgh with Sheila Stone at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 22, 2017 in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Auditorium at the Main Library, 601 Santa Monica Blvd., Santa Monica.
Sheila shares her experiences in Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland taking us on visits to the big sights, such as the Castle, Holyrood Palace, and the Royal Yacht Britannia, as well as the lesser-known places such as Greyfriars Cemetery, Dr. Neal’s Garden, and St. Giles Cathedral. Find out about Edinburgh’s amazing Foodie scene too!
A writer, anthropologist and former stand-up comedian, Sheila lived in Britain for two years while attending graduate school. She offers unique tours of the UK through her site Britain Your Way (britainyourwaytours.com).
