Escape!

Another grey morning. 

Enough - we headed to the city.  It was a bit brighter in Edinburgh, and busy. Living out in the sticks, we hadn't realised how close we are to Festival Time. The window display at the art shop in Dundas Street would have alerted us even if we hadn't noticed the crowds of tourists in town.

We were down that way to have lunch at our favourite cafe, but we were met with a shut door. See extra. Luckily there are plenty of alternatives in that part of town.

Later we did our errands, and headed home. Somehow, it had turned into a nice day. TM was persuaded to stop on the top of Soutra Hill so we could look at the panorama of the Lothians and Fife spread out beneath us. 

Home now, much cheered up by a change of scene and a glimpse of the sun.
