Highland Games in Antigonish July 12th and 13th 2014

I had the opportunity to visit Antigonish, Nova Scotia this weekend.  The purpose of the trip was to see the Highland Games.  I've never seen this event before live...only on TV :).  The highlights of the games included, the Farmers Walk, Bagpipers, Weight Toss and the Tug of War.  All of these competitions were exemplified by the power and strength of the individuals of their respective disciplines.  This was an interesting experience of space and place.

I was able to take in the sights and sounds of this great event of Scottish-Canadian heritage!  I highly recommend it!  It was a blast!
