The Main Cortege - IMG_8472 - Edited

Taken on Great Southern Road, Aberdeen, just up from the King George VI bridge over the River Dee, on September 11th, 2022, as the hearse carrying the body of Queen Elizabeth II was driven through the Granite City on its way from Balmoral Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Edinburgh.

 

The hearse is led down Great Southern Road by a Police Scotland motorcycle rider. Behind the hearse is a red Bentley State Limousine (one of two identical cars custom-built by Bentley for the Royal Family) carrying Princess Anne - the Queen's only daughter - and her husband, Vice Admiral Sir Timothy Laurence. I saw the Princess through the limousine window, but was unable to take photos.
