Squealy bags

I'm on my way to Germany with the Music Department! Again I'm supporting a pupil with Autism. First stop however was the Great Hall at Edinburgh Castle for our first concert. The pupils had to humph all the musical instruments up the steps from Johnstone Terrace to the castle esplanade and then up more steps to the top of the castle. It was a great setting! The concert was brilliant and started with bagpipes (aka squealy bags according to Chris!), there was singing and dancing and the finale of "Caledonia" really did bring a tear to my eye. Lots of tourists came in to watch. 
The pupils then got to wander around the castle for a bit while the teachers had coffee and scones at the very lovely Castle Tearooms. A great start to the tour.
