There was a military band

 
A Swiss band from the Alps A huge squad of motorcycle riders More bands of various types
And a fireworks show The evening ended with the Grand Finale where all participating - units returned to the arena. It was a fantastic evening and we lucked - out with no strong winds or rain during the entire performance! We then joined the crowd for the walk down the hill and back to our hotel. Saturday, August 13 -- This morning we leave Edinburgh and drive - across the Firth of Forth Bridge headed for Saint Andrews. That's a railroad bridge across the Firth in the distance.
A closer shot of the railroad bridge with its interesting design Although it's out of focus, I had to include this picture of - the glorious fireweed seen growing along the highway. A view of some of the Scottish low lands We arrive at Saint Andrews at the course where the game of golf was invented.
