On the grounds of the Edinburgh Castle there was a massive seating area constructed for the performance of the Royal Military Tattoo. We got into the venue around 9 PM, We had fast track tickets so we did not have to line up. We had scouted out the location of the entrance earlier so we bee-lined right to where we needed to go. We walked around the grounds, ,looking at the castle and talking to the ushers. What a beautiful place
Not everyone got the memo that it was going to be cold
The line behind us
Fires all along the perimeter of the castle
Our open seats to the left
Some fine buildings outside
Arthurs Seat with people hiking on the top
A large cauldron of flame
Some fancy pants
Sweetie!
Burn baby burn
A must expensive whiskey container
Parabolic microphones?
A feather cloud
All lit up
Kilt time
Tam O' Shanter hat
From these castle doors...
Very Important People...
We are not sure exactly how important they are...
But they are dressed for the part!
They walk the whole length of the performance space
At a leisurely pace
To get to their seats
Laughing and hob knobbing the entire way
Swords by their sides
Medals slung around their necks
While we all wait
For the show to start
Who is this, a V-VIP
The head of the British Joint Chiefs of Staff has arrived
The light is fading
Can we just get this show started yet?
