Wow!
Such a lot of lovely pictures.
You would never see so many kilts at a Christmas Parade here in Scotland.
You certainly appear to have been blessed with fine weather.

Great pics! It is always nice to see so many kilts on show but the highlight was seeing Santa playing the pipes

Their commander of many years died quietly in his sleep Friday morning, the day before the parade, so the members are all wearing black armbands in mourning.

Alexandria looks to be a beautiful place which makes it an ideal backdrop for all the beautiful tartans and their handsome wearers!

OK Ern where's that $5?

Wonderful! I loved the Cloucester Light Dory on it's trailer, presumably made by the Harbor association!

What wonderful photos, Ern. Looks like a wonderful day, I sure the warmth of the sun was very welcome. I'd have loved to have been there to participate with the XMarkers I recognize from the VA games at The Plains in 2010 and 2011.

This Santa, who doesn't play the bagpipes, was busy (nearly 13 hours) with Breakfast with Santa and a full day at the mall meeting hundreds of children.

Thanks for posting the pictures. First Alexandria Walk I have missed in three years. Oh well. Plan on wearing my kilt for New Year's Eve in Red Square, so that should make up for missing the Walk.
