From South to North

So leaving the joys of sunny France we had a long weekend in windy, chilly Edinburgh, but what a lovely city Edinburgh is.

A favourite place to visit - The Botanical Gardens - complete with squirrels!




and the world's tallest palm house

then with the sun low in the sky, a super photo-opportunity for an arty-farty shot (actually I'm quite pleased with it!!)

Heading South

Or to be more precise South-West. On our last visit to Chez Borgnette this year, doing a little clearing of ivy from, the walls when the noise of honking geese gradually increased soon this superb skein flying overhead heading for the warmth - Spain or Africa?




Absolutely superb sight - I hope they all make it
