Tall ships Tuesday

Last time I promise, this was one of the biggest ships to come into Kirkwall it arrived yesterday. Its called MIR and is Russian and if you look closely, the chick in the fancy coloured beany is none other than Mrs U. All the ships are now on their way to Shetland. It has been a great display of these majestic historic ships and makes you realise how hardy and brave the sailors of the day must have been.
