Parky

The fluffy white stuff has stopped falling from the sky, and the mercury recently rose above the 273 Kelvin mark for the first time in many days. The snow disappeared like - well, like snow off a dyke - to be replaced by pools of slushy meltwater and watery ice. As the temperature has dropped again this weekend, so the cycleways, footpaths and parks of Edinburgh have refrozen and turned into impromptu ice rinks. It was inevitable then, that when we decided to pop around to Ravelston Park for a bit of (very) fresh air today, Louis would insist on riding his bike. We had a nice time mucking about on the swings and seesaw, and Louis did indeed manage to ride along the icy pavement.
