Text for the first task.

Welcome to Edinburgh. We would like to welcome you to spend your day in and around the capital.

Edinburgh Zoo has Scotland's finest collection of wild animals and is open between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. 365 days a year. Bring the family and spend the day at the zoo. It's only 15 minutes from the city centre. Buses to and from the zoo are number 12, 26, 31 and 86. There are also car parking meters.

One of the best ways to see this beautiful and historic city is by joining one of the many coach tours organized by Lothian Regional Transport. These tours cover all parts of the city and leave from Waverly Bridge, just off Princes Street, throughout the day. For details, please phone 5544494.

You will be surprised just how much you can see of it in one day.

If the weather is clear, why not visit the Wellhouse Tower and Camera Oscura at the top of the Royal Mile near Edinburgh Castle? Here, you can look out on fascinated views of Edinburgh and beyond, through this unique optical device installed in 1850. There is also a Scottish gift, book and record shop. The Camera Oscura is open every day between 9.30 a.m. and 5 p.m.

For your entertainment in the theatre this evening, the King's Theatre in Leven Street presents Peter Morrison and his guests, who introduce the audience to the fine Scottish tradition of popular singing. This show begins at 8 p.m.

To find out more about events or places to visit, please call the Tourist Information Centre at 5, Waverly Bridge, or telephone 2266591.

We do hope you'll enjoy your day in the capital. Thank you.
