Joan, a tattoo is a display of military exercises, this one has a drum and fife performance as well.

Jodi-

Another rose today....

Shot into the sun.

Karen, I didn't know there was a phrase for military exercises - thank you! I always enjoy your pictures so much. There is little chance of me getting to Nova Scotia, so I am very appreciative.

indianakat, that is a really beautiful rose. Do you know the name?

Thanks to you all for your postings.

I will be experiencing The Tattoo in Edinburgh week after next. 283,000 will be experiencing as well over a three week period.

Kat I always love your roses.

Oh Glenda, I went to the one in Edinburgh in 1997. LOVED it- was the coolest thing to have the National Anthem sung in a foreign country! I would recommend a sweater- I went in August also and it was quite chilly!
