Leeds Pride weekend. Wow. After a far too long 3 year wait since the last one, we had been building up to this!

For me, Leeds Pride weekend is the highlight of the year. And this year it certainly didn't disappoint!

So to Sunday, the day of the parade. Wow, what an overwhelming, beautiful, wonderful day that was! Meeting up with lots of friends we hadn't seen in such a long time, and of course, the parade itself was incredible to experience. I high fived so many kids along the route, and it was so lovely seeing their faces light up as they high fived!

We met up again with our amazing friends who made us the 'You Matter' pine cone which has resonated down the years (see the picture of the pine cone in my album August 2018 for the story) and it's always a privilege to see them, and the lovely Sue too, a friend we made when she saw the story of the pine cone here on Flickr.

I was emotionally drained by the time the parade was over though, so I didn't go back out into Leeds on the evening. But what a day. I'll remember it for ever!

The Parade. Pictures really don't capture the atmosphere, but what an amazing parade it was!
