Edinburgh Riding of the Marches

[WeeB]

I took my niece along to the royal mile in edinburgh on sunday to watch the riding of the marches.

It was a great afternoon (despite having to wait an hour after getting there early enough to get a good spot) there were loads of people there watching and two of my friends were riding in it.

Here are a few of the photos I took.
