Canada celebrated Queen Victoria's birthday this past weekend and Victoria, British Columbia, celebrated its 151st annual Highland Games. Under almost cloudless skies the event gathered thousands of spectators, world-class heavies, US champion LA Scots and six-times world champion Simon Fraser University bands and, of course, a collection of XMarks folk. A few pics of the day:
Macman before the sunburn.

LA Scots' base.

Post-competition three SFU pipers 'judging' LA Scots.
Not mine; beautifully trained.
A captured moment. Four of many: Macman, KiltedGnome, Wizardof BC, ThistleDown.
