Private CabinThe First Family were extremely excited about what lay ahead of them. Caroline and John sat talking to their father while William, who was an active 3 year old, sat on his mother's knee looking out of the window in the plane.
"Where are we going mummy?" William asked his mother with a smile.
Jackie grinned. "We're going to a country called Scotland" Jackie told her son.
"Why?" William asked. Jackie wrapped her arms around him.
"Well, Scotland is a beautiful country. And you were named after a famous person from there" Jackie explained.William was stunned. "That's cool! Who was he?" William asked. Jackie told her son about how William Wallace fought for his country before he died.
She didn't go into great detail, after all he was 3.
Jackie hid the urge to smile and giggle at her family's attire. She was dressed in a tartan suit and Caroline in a matching dress. Jack wore a black tie with a Stewart tartan tie and John and William were in black coats with tartan sashes.
They looked patriotic to a country, they weren't even from.
