Have you visited Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh?
Last week, we had the pleasure of watching our son Maxwell take part in the Beating Retreat at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh. It was a very proud day for us. ๐๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ถ
Beating Retreat is a centuries-old military ceremony that originated in the 16th and 17th centuries. Originally, it was a practical battlefield command where drummers were sent out to signal troops to cease fighting, return to camp at sunset, and close the garrison gates for the night.
