    Oban Highland Games

    August 25, 2022 in Scotland ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    This will likely go down as one of the highlights. This was technically the 2nd annual festival we've been able to attend The first was Saints day in Pisa. Although, that was not planned making this the first intentional visit to a local festival. We've heard a lot about the Highland Games, but it was amazing to attend one of the many from around the region. We were able to hear bag pipe bands... oh so many bag pipe bands, see traditional dancers, see the foot races and strong man competitions.

    We took so much video, that we really had to try to make a compilation of the footage. I apologize for my shaky hands, especially in the parade video. I was trying to walk and record and dodge others.
