Yesterday we drove to Blair Castle to watch the Highland games. \u00a0(My daddy’s name is Blair so that made this castle extra cool .)<\/p>\n

We watched a whole band of bagpipers march into the ceremony. \u00a0It was loud but amazing!!! \u00a0This is a picture of the band.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Then I watched a tug-of-war. The tug-of-war was the band against the Highlanders. \u00a0 The Highlanders are the real athletes and the band was trying their best. \u00a0It was sort of a joke but they took it very seriously until the band lost superfast. (In about 3.5 seconds)<\/p>\n

The band, the officers and the Highlanders all had a really race in their kilts too. \u00a0A guy from the band fell down and his kilt flipped up. He wasn’t wearing any underpants and everyone saw his rear end! \u00a0 He stood up and kept running! \u00a0 The Highlanders, once again won.<\/p>\n

This is the most amazing thing I have seen in Scotland so far. \u00a0 There was also a caber toss. \u00a0A really strong man in a kilt tries to flip a telephone pole end over end in the caber toss.<\/p>\n
