The Utah Highland Games was held at Thanksgiving Point on June 13th. I went with a few of my friends and got to see the Wicked Tinkers, the parade of clans, and Citrine (a couple of my friends are a part of the music group). We also did a little shopping of the booths and I got some homemade rootbeer and tasty fish and chips before the BIG rain storm hit. I was completely drenched by the time I made it back to my car! At least it was a warm rain! I didn't see much of the athletic events but there sure is something about those bagpipes! This was my second year attending and it's become a fun tradition. I'm always tempted to purchase some Celtic jewelry but I always feel a little weird - maybe I just don't want people to think that I'm a confused Japanese woman pretending to be Scottish. Looks like I can't post a video with the bagpipes (just keeps processing, maybe it's too long for the blogspot to handle) - just know that it sounds GREAT and makes you feel like you're in Scotland!!!

I lveo that you're posting again!
Very Cool! Nothing like feeling like you are somewhere else and being home all along!
p.s. my cousin is going to Antartica and is looking for someone to join her.... it is a cruise. Let me know if you are interested and I will give you her email or number or something! It sounds amazing!
