The Scottish Festival Parade

waiting for the parade to start

the "heavy events" participants carrying a Caber

kilts as far as the eye can see!
Good thing it wasn't a windy day, I know a lot of these people are hardcore kilt wearers and there's nothing under those things!

Lily mesmerized by the bagpipes

The MacLeod clan makes an appearance in the video. There were so many families represented in the parade and in today's presbyterian church service there is a blessing of the family tartans. It's quite something to see, and hear. You walk around town and every where there are bagpipers practicing for competitions either solo or with a drummer or with their brigade.
The sound of bagpipes can be heard all over town this weekend.
