Recently my Mum and I visited the gardens at Dunvegan Castle in Skye. We were so lucky to have a lovely sunny day, and happily wandered the many paths and crossed the rustic bridges.

Heathers in April.

…and the castle looked great too.

We crossed some more bridges, and a couple of waterfalls…

… and then we found a lovely sunny spot in the walled garden.Protected from the wind, we sat down for a while, and just soaked up the Spring sunshine.
