Virginia tattoo day 10
This morning we woke up bright and early to get ready for the day. We jumped into the vans at half past 8 to travel to the Scope Arena to perform our first show. The arena was filled with around 6000 school kids. We performed our ‘Here’s to the hero’s’ item and our ‘Swing of the kilts’ item. Shortly after, we walked around the arena to the back of the stage where we had to march on with all the other performers to our finale where we stand still smiling for 16 minutes. There was a big ‘thud’ as the conductor slipped off his block after one of the songs, which gave us a bit of a fright. After all our performing half of the group took off to a school to perform the ‘Rhythm in blue’ dance and a few others, while the rest of us relaxed our legs. When they came back about 6 of us went to the Nauticus Naval Museum which has a big ship. All us others went to a mall and most of us came back with a few shopping bags in our hands. At 5 o’clock we hopped in the vans that took us to dinner at Baxter’s where we are dinner. We were so tired when we got home so we all went to our rooms and got ready for bed.
