BOBBY
スコットランド版忠犬ハチ公と言われているのがこの犬。像はCandlemarker RowとGeorgeIV Bridgeの2つの道が合流する所にぽつんと立っています。場所がよく分からない時はそばにGreyfriars Bobby Barというバーがあるのでそのお店を目指せば探すのは簡単でしょう。
用BOBBY這關鍵字＋愛丁堡，找到一段文字。引用一下～基本上就是說這隻狗的故事，就跟澀谷車站前的［八千公］一樣。是一個很愛主人，在主人死后依然堅守著自己的習慣，每天巡著跟主人的動線和回憶，直到牠也死去。
本來也沒這麼刻意的知道這故事。可是出發前剛好在旅遊探險頻道看見了這故事的介紹（或是哪個日本節目？有些忘記了？！），於是就依著資料去尋找。
基本上就在可以前去Royal Museum of Scotland（蘇格蘭博物館）的路上，可以順線前往。這日本人的建議是，雖說狗狗BOBBY雕像是位在Candlemarker Row和GeorgeIV Bridg交會的地方。但一不留意就會走過去沒發現。建議以更大的目標～［Greyfriars Bobby Bar］，這以狗狗BOBBY為命名的酒吧來搜尋，會更容易。
ＯＫ～那就以Greyfriars Bobby Bar來搜尋看看，果然比較容易就找到網站。http://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/edinburgh/pubguide/greyfriarsbobbysbar.html
貼上英文說明～混字數。哈～
As it's migrated as far as Hollywood, it's fair to say that most visitors have some idea of the story of Greyfriars Bobby. But just in case, here's the two minute version. John Gray was an Edinburgh policeman who died of tuberculosis on 15 February 1858 and was buried in Greyfriars Kirkyard. He had a dog, a Skye Terrier called Bobby, and for the following 14 years, until the dog's own death in 1872, Bobby kept watch over John Gray's grave.
Cynics have been known to claim that the dog actually kept watch over the wrong grave, but whatever the detail, Greyfriars Bobby has gone down in history as an emblem of devotion and faithfulness. Today his memory is marked by a life size statue on a plinth in the street outside, and in the name of the pub.
