The Scottish Festival in Columbus, Indiana

Aye, right!  Today we went to the Scottish Festival in Columbus, Indiana.  A wee festival that celebrated all things Scottish...from jewelry and Celtic crosses to books and Scottish food.  Yes, even haggis!

Paul wore a Scottish rugby jersey that we bought in the UK, but with all the kilts no one really noticed.  He was disappointed.


We did some shopping and watched the bagpipers.

 
We also saw some highland cattle.


And we had a little fun pretending to be Scottish.


We wanted to try a dish called rumbledethumps but they dinnae have any left.  It's a traditional dish from the Scottish borders. The main ingredients are potato, cabbage and onion.  The one at the festival also had cheese.  We saw someone eating it, and it smelled yummy.

A festival like this makes me want to go back to the UK.  We haven't explored Scotland nearly enough.
