This was not a long winter visit to Edinburgh, more a short Spring fling. On my way to meet my sister for a walk, I noticed swirling pink petals in front of me. They were like snowflakes, except it wasn’t cold. The blossom was already beginning to fall. There are thick bunches so I hope they cling on. This weekend our friends are hosting a cherry blossom party to celebrate being a year in their new Quartermile flat, with a Birdseye view of the Meadows. Unfortunately I have had to decline as we will both be gone by then, but lets hope that not all the blossom has. I am sure they will have fun without us or the cherry blossom. If you zoom in to some of the pictures you might see the petals falling.
