Scenic Sunday - Whetting my appetite

In a couple of weeks, it's the May Two-Four long weekend in Canadaland. In Victoria, there will be 'The 147th Victoria Highland Games & Celtic Festival.'

Yesterday there was a wee taster, a promo, held for the event; The Victoria Tartan Parade featuring a local pipeband, some highland dancers and a few heavy event athletes. I walked down to the harbour and took a few snaps.

I'm a sucker for an old pickup truck.

I liked the various cultural uses for poles in this scene.

I took a few videos too with my cheapo point n shoot and had to convert the vids using freebie software... but they're not too bad, considering.


A successful caber toss (if that's the wording?):

I intend to checkout main event in a couple of weeks... watch this space!
