The Edinburgh Festival has commenced! The streets are full of performers, theatrical types and millions of tourists. Every year we go to see something but without fail we potter around the Grassmarket and High Street just to soak up the atmosphere at different times during the Festival.
Yesterday was raining, but despite the miserable weather the crowds were out in full force. We started with a browse around the pop up market at the Grassmarket, were I bought a cute vintage tin for £2 and fell in love with the male torso mannequin which I couldn't afford! He would have made a cute addition to Headless Edna and Leggy Peggy, no? After aquiring a mask from Costume Ha Ha for a Masquarade party I'm going to later this month, we pottered up the hill to the Royal Mile to mingle in the crowds.
Here's just a snippet of some of the curiosities we saw.........
