We went the Eyam Rat Burning and its INSANE

We travelled to Eyam in the Peak District for one of the most uniqure bonfire traditions in the UK. Eyam was destroyed by the plague in 1665 and to commenerate this the village builds a giant rat for the Burn The Rat event on Bonfire Night. The event starts in Eyam village square and a giant rat is carried up the streets to the chants of "Burn the Rat, Burn the Rat" before been placed on the giant bonfire. Trurly a unique experience.

This was so weird and interesting at the same time. I think Sophie should have started the fire, she was ready lol

[@gettingoutwiththekids]

She would probably burn the whole village down, she is a bit crazy that child haha
