Bagpipes, the Royal Mile, and lots of tartan… I must be in Edinburgh! I’m here to celebrate Hogmanay (the Scottish New Year) with my friends Kate and Sarah-Rose. We’ll be amongst 80,000 revellers tonight at the street party to ring in the New Year – can’t wait!
The Torchlight Procession through the streets of Edinburgh
At Greyfriars Cemetery we were shown around by an amazing volunteer tour guide, Wallace, who told us fascinating stories about the graves and also J.K Rowling, who took inspiration from the Cemetery in writing the Harry Potter books
He even showed us Voldemort’s ACTUAL WAND from the movies! Amazing
Edinburgh Castle looking gorgeous in the afternoon sun
I’m off to join in the street party – to those that have already celebrated it and to those about to, Happy New Year!
