Edzell River Walk

I was walking here a few weeks ago at the Rocks of Solitude. As you’ll see from the photos in my last blog, it was the height of the salmon leaping season and the leaves were just starting to change. I went back this weekend to see the leaves in their full Autumn glory and also extended the walk by starting in Edzell and walking along by the river.

Here are some photos that I took.

And the walk back by the road. The row of trees in the background is where the path is that we walked earlier by the river.

A Sunday Afternoon Walk in Scotland

Overcast but still so very mild and now the colours are changing and some leaves dropping.

This is my favourite time of year to see so many different foliage colours.

Come and enjoy the walk.

A Holiday in Dubai

I am just back from a wonderful holiday in beautiful Dubai.

The buildings are of impressive structure.

Weather very hot and sunny and excellent food.

At night it looked as if was studded with diamonds when all lit up - very impressive.

Here are a couple of videos of the fountains that we took.

 

The desert trip was brilliant, just not long enough. We had an excellent driver who took us “Dune Bashing”.
