Our first

 Today was all about Up Helly Aa . The fire festival of 2023. It was a terrific day. We missed the morning parade but caught up with the galley and proclamation.  It blew and hailed on and off all day but behaved both for the junior and adult processions, although mighty cold. It did seem a shame to burn the beautiful galleys.





It was good to see ladies joining in for the first time. Will add lots more photos in the morning. The Internet is so slow tonight it has taken 25 mins to load 2 photos!

Finally made it

 Jill has been wanting to visit Fethaland, at the very far North of mainland, for ages. Today was the day. Lovely sunny weather for a change...
