Our friends of Embro have a grand Scottish background. They have the Highland Games every July 1 regardless of the weather.
There are wonderful pipe bands that compete side by side with all the traditional Scottish games. We happened upon a Celtic treat outside of Embro today.
We went to Stratford to walk along the water and low and behold this amazing group was playing on a moored barge. What a treat. The music was varied and very Celtic with Ben sharing much of the history which was so interesting. One never knows how a day will expand one's knowledge of the music of our country. We fell into a ceilidh and enjoyed every minute.
