US Army Twilight Tattoo

Today started pretty early. We checked our bags at DFW and went to meet Sean’s mom’s plane at the newly reopened Terminal E satellite. Of course her flight arrived at the furthest gate away! We all walked to the Skylink train and took it to Terminal A where we boarded our flight to DCA. The flight was fairly bumpy but we arrived on time. We collected our bags and took the Metro to our hotel in Alexandria.
We took the Metro to Arlington, where we had dinner at Ireland’s Four Courts pub. I didn’t take any food pics, but we all enjoyed our meals.
Our evening activity tonight was the US Army’s “Twilight Tattoo” at Fort Myer.


We were surprised to be seated in the VIP section, and we really enjoyed the show! Many units performed, especially the Old Guard. Lynn and I especially loved the Fife & Drum Corps.



The Army Drill team was particularly impressive!


After the performance, we took an Uber back to our hotel. 
Tomorrow will be another busy day!
