Autumn sunshine

It has been very mild right up until the end of September, however yesterday evening  I noticed that the temperature dropped considerably. It had been pleasantly mild during the day but by the evening there was a wee nip in the air. This morning it was misty and cool, and there definitely seems to be a change of season.
However we still had some beautiful weather today. James and I went through to Portobello in the hope of seeing Jennifer's poetry exhibition, even though we knew that it had ended on 30th September. We hoped that it might have been left in place over the weekend but alas it was gone - our own fault for leaving it so late. So we went for a walk along the prom all the way from Portobello to Musselburgh and back again. It was so nice walking beside the sea with views of Arthur's Seat in the distance. An elderly man asked us if the was "something on" because he was surprised at how many people were out and about. We suggested that, like us, lots of people were making the most of the sunshine while it lasts!
