Scotland, days 10, 11, 12 and 13

Day 10

Time to go back to Edinburgh for the Royal Highland Show!

But before the show, we climped with other exhangee to Arthur's seat hill in the centre of Edinburgh. Great views!

Almost in the middle you can see the Edinburgh castle.

Days 11, 12 and 13 

Time to see the Royal Highland Show, which is, if someone didn't know, a huge agricultural show.

And I relly mean the HUGE.

It did took hours to walk around the area where the show was held.

In the show you can go and see lots of different cow and sheep breeds. There was also horse shows, bagpipe orchestra was playing there... They also did have a big food market, where they were giving samples of different food products (Cheese, milk, beef, strawberries, chocolate... Everything!)


So many people!

The food market. Random people, just ingnore them.

 

Omnonomonom, look what I found!

All the exchangees were invited to celebrate Scotland's Young Farmers 75th birthday year.
In the tiny party, we heard some bagpipe playing, and we ate also good food :3

I also met two scottish women, who have been in Finland as exhangees. It was fun to listen what they thought about Finland.

There were not just animals and other agricultural stuff in the show. I really wanted to try this thing, but I was too tall for it :'<

Horse and it's rider waiting their turn on the competition. The horse was so big!

There was also cake making competition for the Scottish Young Farmers.
Because Young Farmers organization was having 75th birthday, the topic of competition was to make birthday cake for Young Farmers organization.

And look at these cakes!! : O

Most of the teams also wanted to decorate the table around the cake.

A tea party cake.

 

These things on the cake were so tiny!

I really enjoyed the Royal Highland show. Weather was nice (it rained only on Saturday. We heard that last year it was raining all the time and there was mud everywhere!).

Every evening there was also dj playing music in a huge tent. I danced so much that my feet were hurting on next day XD
