Walk in the park

Monday, May 4th, 2009

No, I don’t mean re-designing my website.  I’m actually going to make the most of the bank holiday today and go for a walk in the park.  Living in Scotland means you are never to far from the countryside.  In less than half an hour you can be out of Edinburgh and miles from all the people, traffic and roadworks.

Dalkeith Country Park is on the outskirts of Edinburgh and includes an excellent adventure playground with lots of slides, aerial walkways and zip-lines.  It’s a shame I might be a little too old (and heavy) to be allowed on them but I’m sure my niece and nephew will make up for that.
