Along the River to a Teddy Bears' Picnic!
We walked along the Slateford to Saughton stretch of the Water of Leith today
and into Saughton Park
especially the tulips
the topiary birds are in great shape

Saughton Park will close for a few months soon as it is going to be upgraded, the old buildings that used to be used as stables are going to be brought back into use and a new cafe created. You can read more in my blogpost from a few weeks ago.

A beautiful park!
ReplyDeleteSo charming! I always think the water of Leith looks such a pretty spot too, bet there's some trout to watch in there
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely looking park. The flowers are just so colourful.
ReplyDeleteI always think Teddy Bear Picnics such fun for the young ... and the young at heart!
Wishing you a Happy Easter
All the best Jan
What a lovely park... And how fun to find the hidden bears. The blossoms are just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI am reading Ed Abbey's Desert Solitaire. He spent time there. Is he well known?
