Jousting - Linlithgow Palace

I enjoyed another day through at Linlithgow Palace when the jousting was taking place.

The very warm sunny weather helped make it an even more enjoyable day - even though it was perhaps a bit too hot at times.

As always we were very well entertained and everyone was very friendly.

A day out to be recommended.

Linlithgow Palace - Jousting

 My first - but will not be my last - visit to Linlithgow Palace to see the jousting.

Can't recommend this day enough. An hour of fun and excitement as the knights joust for superiority.

Must also say a word about the horses who behaved impeccably throughout the day.

We were fortunate with the weather and the surroundings were beautiful.
