Out of town pool report #5 - Arrival ceremony over

After the inspection, Trump and the king returned to the dais.

Soldiers on horseback in ceremonial uniforms filed out and then the different detachments marched off in order, playing music. The Scots Guards, playing bagpipes were last to leave, perhaps in a nod to Trump, whose mother was Scottish and who has two golf courses in Scotland.

The Trumps and the royals then left the stage towards the Sovereign’s Entrance and went for lunch. Pool is now being taken to hold in a rather stunning arched room inside the castle.

Stephen Miller, Steven Cheung, Karoline Leavitt, Margo Martin and Will Scharf were also among those in attendance at the ceremony, by the way.
