Alexandria!

Sorry we haven't written! Alexandria is such a gorgeous city! We are staying on King St in the Old Town area. I'll post a photo album later today.

We played in the Alexandria St. Patrick's Day Parade yesterday. 60 degrees and overcast. Perfect piping weather! We were the last unit in the event and the crowd loved us! The boys all looked wonderful! (I think it was the first time everyone had the same uniform..for real)

Some of the advanced pipers and drummers decided to give "busking" a try....and they were amazing. They played on street corners in the Old Town all night long. They made "bank"! A good way for them to earn some cash and get a lot of practice. The crowds were often 20-50 people who were dancing and clapping and taking photos. A VERY fun evening for the boys!
