There is a mass exodus from Edinburgh Airport today of people heading Stateside to attend the New York City Tartan Day Parade on Saturday.
Some of those going are on their way to promote their businesses, others like Ceilidh Band Whisky Kiss are off to play music in the Big Apple, and some are going to lead the parade.
The samba drumming group Pulse of the Place will wear the World Fair Trade Tartan and will accompany Gail Porter who has been chosen to lead the parade.

The annual cost is £33, some of which covers the postage costs and the rest will help us to keep bringing you the news and producing a newspaper.
Our target is to recruit 500 new subscribers in 2023 as this would ensure production of the paper for a whole year. And any surplus would of course be reinvested in our site, or in employing a new member of staff.
If an annual subscription is too much of a commitment then could we ask you to contribute a smaller amount – for a cup of coffee – through ko-fi. Any small amount helps us a lot – and it takes a lot of coffee to produce the news.
