King Charlie and Camilla are staying at Balmoral in Scotland for their annual summer break which goes on until October.
On Saturday September 7th they were at the Highland Games which takes place near Balmoral. The event has a history stretching back 800 years but was reinvented in 1832 (the year of the Great Reform Act). The Royals have been attending since 1848 possibly a tradition invented by Queen Victoria.
Caber tossing, tug of war, throwing 28lb weights (not at Charlie) and Scottish dancing were on display.
