One of the many bonuses of long sunny days, lovely sunsets.  
 In the distance you can just see the Queensferry Crossing and Forth Road and Rail bridges.
I wish these photos could show how luminous the water is!

    Wow those pictures are beautiful! Thank you for leaving a comment with me and apologies at the length of time it has taken too reply I don't have much spare time for blogging at the moment. It is lovely to see images from your part of Scotland as we have ventured that way a few times. We seem to have similar interests too! I hope to resume blogging in a few weeks time. Sarah x

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

Coastal walk from Gullane to North Berwick

By the time I have walked about four miles, my toes are screaming at me - it's the arthritis, you see.  One of the joys of being that little bit older than I was.  However, for a long time, I have been keen to walk along the beaches, and follow the coastal path, between Gullane and North Berwick. So, having worked out the tide times, I decided today was the day, and off we went. Below is our starting point, the bay at Gullane.  It's a lovely beach, very popular with dog walkers.
