Calgary Highland Games

Today, Melissa and I went to the Calgary Highland Games. It was quite fun to see bag pipes, many gentlemen of all ages in kilt, and traditional Scottish dancing. I am also comforted to see that there is a British influence around here and not merely an English influence.

I also learned that there is a Calgary, Banff, and Airdrie in Scotland and I am guessing this is where the name of our local towns are coming from.

I also suspect, looking a the license plate below, that there may have been other nationalities enjoying the games.
