Alexandria Scottish Christmas Walk 2010 Pix

My sharp eye for that sort of thing noticed the Union Flag of the UK was being flown upside down. (In pic adjacent to caption "Tuesday November 30th 2010" )
It should give precedence to Scotland over N. Ireland. with the broad white diagonal stripe uppermost at the hoist!
A common mistake and often seen over here in the UK too!

I was there yesterday and saw your backpack with a sheep, I was having a real bad leg day so could not walk fast enough to catch up with you, or even march. It was a splendid day.

Youngest grandson and I made it down. Walked with our Clan Society (Clan Young). Had a great time. He tells me he wants to do it again next year, but he wants us to get a hotel room Friday night so he doesn't have to get up so early. Here's an "after parade" shot.

Great set of pics. Looks like it was a fantastic event with very nice weather.
We here in Norway are a bit frozen down at the moment with down to -4 degrees Fahrenheit in the weekend. How cold was it in Alexandria?

Mid twenties Fahrenheit hitting forty in the afternoon. It was sunnier than forecasted turning out to be delightful. I thought I was to lightly dressed but turned out to be perfect. Sooo, different to the rainy, snowy cold we had the year before.
