England: Week 8 - Scotland (Royal Tattoo)




SCOTLAND
We drove 8 hours to the great land of Scotland up north. We were lucky enough to get tickets to the Royal Tattoo at Edinburgh Castle. The weather was perfect as we drove to the top of this massive hill to the Castle. 

We got to tour the city and all the city entertainment before the show started.



Scotland = Bagpipes, Kilts and Whisky

The Royal Tattoo is a military salute of the bagpipe bands and many other bands from around the country. There is a special guest of honor at the event (usually a high military leader - last time we went 10 years ago it was Prince Charles).

All the bagpipers from all over the world.

The bagpipes were so amazing as they echoed off the building.
