Saturday 30 May 2009

Today was an early start, as I headed on a bus with the Pipes and Drums of the Scots Guards to the center of London. We arrived at Wellington Barracks where the pipes and drums got dressed in their number 1 dress and tuned there pipes.

I then made my way to Horse Guards, passing Buckingham Palace and walking down the historical Mall. Once at Horse Guards I took my seat to watch the rehearsal for the Trooping of the Color. It was an amazing event, with all the pomp and circumstance that only the British Army could pull off.

After the Trooping we all headed back to Calvary Barracks where we enjoyed a BBQ and had a few pints.
