Prince Charles and William make rare appearance together

Most fathers and sons enjoy the odd outing and it seems Prince Charles and William are no different. 

Prince Charles and his son, the Duke of Cambridge, attended the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo in Scotland earlier today.

The pair were decked out in their finest to celebrate the annual series of military tattoos and even took a Gaelic toast at the start of the event held at Edinburgh Castle.

 

The Duke of Rothesay and The Duke of Cambridge have arrived @EdinburghCastle for The Royal Military Edinburgh Tattoo. As Guest of Honour at tonight’s Edinburgh Tattoo, The Duke of Rothesay is acting as Salute Taker for the evening. The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo started in 1947 as the Army in Scotland’s contribution to the Edinburgh International Festival. . . #SplashOfTartan #Army #Royal #Castle #Edinburgh
