Doors Open - to the outdoors as well as the indoors

We had an interesting time on Saturday visiting the Church of the Sacred Heart, Granton Lighthouse, and St Cecelia's Hall which all had special events to mark Doors Open Day 2009.

  But whilst the stained glass, statues, musical instruments and buildings were fascinating they were nothing when compared to the light and the clouds outside!

We walked round the church with its friezes, Stations of the Cross, marble and finely embroidered vestments...  The light through the cupolas kept drawing my eye - oh for a church without walls...

And by the time i was walking down to buy vegetables in the late afternoon the cloud formations were simply stunning!  Indeed i had to phone Gail and pull her away from doing chores to step outside and enjoy them too!
