Loch Drunkie

This has been on my list of walks to do for a while. I love the name...

 

It was a perfect day to explore. It was dry and still

 

 

We found musical instrument's along the walk

 

 

There was no one else about apart from 2 canoeists who were fishing on the loch

 

 

Every rope had a different bell on the end....

 

 

I'd like one of these in my garden. It had ears...

 

 

Loads of Bluebells still out

 

 

Marsh Violet I think?

 

Rosslyn Chapel and Glen

It was good to see Rosslyn Chapel without the scaffold surrounding it.

 

This house close to the chapel used to be the Inn

 

 

We took a wee wander in the Glen. I have never seen so much wild garlic before

 

Edinburgh somewhere

Two of my lovely babies Lawrence and Hannah

 

Gayfield Square

 

 

Sir Arthur Conon Doyle was born near here

 

 

The  proud Mum

 

Stirling College river walk

A very late lunch time walk today. It was about 3pm and getting quite dark. I parked at the Stirling College in the Raploch and headed alongside the river

 

I think its a stunning setting for a college. I must visit the restaurant which is open to the public and run by the students

Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh

 

 A walk in the Edinburgh Botanic Gardens today

 

We loved this chair. It was really comfy  

 

 

This is the Edible Gardening Project

  

The colours in the hedge from the sunlight was amazing

Such delicate flowers

  

 

There is now a charge to visit the Hot Houses although the garden is free

 

This fossilized tree was fantastic

  

 

The squirrels were very tame

 

Andy Goldworthy's Slate Hole Wall

 

Inverleith House which has a good view of the castle

Another Andy Goldworthy piece. Slate Cone

and Arthurs Seat (one of my walks this year)
