Lochiel marching tattoo 2013!!!!!!!

Photo: Day 14 - Saturdays during the tattoo are always tough and a very long day!! Nothing like a few red bulls or coffee to get you through!

After a morning off we had a video session and watched a few of the performances to see the problem areas or ourselves, followed by a basic marching practice!! Was good to go back to basics as sometimes we get a little lazy on it!!!

Show 1 - "No breaking" - it's always hard to pull off a perfect march when you don't have the effects of the lights etc however we did manage to keep our 9.7 from the previous night!

With a few hours to waste before the next show Colleen took us up to the back of the castle to see Edinburgh at night, was beautiful!

Back to the changing room and again it's time for Waiata practise and our warm up! I do feel for the NZ Army band who are underneath us with all the stamping!

Show 2 - "Expression" and we nailed a 10!!!  Pretty stoked, now to keep the rest of the performances at this level or higher!!!  With TV nights approaching still a few things to work on so we get the perfect march for you all to see!
