Edinburgh tattoo

This was on TV on Saturday night and it has always been on interest to us especially as we have been there. Warren was lucky enough to have had tickets given to him while he was stationed in England way back when. The same year when I visited him in England, we toured and Edinburgh and the castle was the first stop.

The parade ground where they do all the moves and drills become the bus parking for visitors when the Tattoo is not on.

This year was called East meets West and there were a couple of pipe bands from China, highland dancers, a mixed group from USA, Canada and Australia. The whole show went for an hour and a half and was good entertainment.

When we visited the Castle, the thing that I remember most was the graveyard for the soldiers dogs which I thought was sweet,it was very well attended too. The Castle itself is very impressive, I loved the cobblestones as we walked down the streets. I do have plan to return to England and Scotland in particular.
