Lloyd enjoying a taste
Ewan taking his turn
Plaid Preacher having a turn
Hendry having a dram
Joan enjoys a wee sip
Then it was Mark's turn
Today Nathan and I took the Quaich on another wee adventure, this time in Toronto, those photos to come.

It was great to have such a strong turnout! 17 and growing! I think a good time was had by all! Great photos, Glen! Your phone camera is so much better than mine!

Good times were had by all. Many thanks to Nathan, Glen, the Caledonian, and Tennent's!

The continuing adventure of the Quaich in Toronto
Today Nathan and I took the quaich on a wee tour of a few placed in Toronto first we went to the Burns memorial at Allen Gardens
Then we were off to the 48th Highlanders Museum
Along the way we ran into Toronto`s finest on horseback and asked them for a photo which they were glad to pose for.

Ron, Nathan and myself with the Quaich.
Ron the Quaich and me in front of the Vimy Cross
We then walked up to Kensington Market to look for some kilts and or accessories. We did find 3 sporrans a few kilt pins and several kilts in various states of disrepair most of the kilts had moth damage, we even found an American Bicentennial tartan kilt, given the recent thread we both thought that finding that was a bit funny.
That is about it for the Quaich's adventure in Toronto, it was an honour and a pleasure to be part of the journey of the Quaich and I look forward to her continued adventures.
It was yet another good day with the wee quaich which will shortly be winging it's way to Ottawa for Canada Day.

I've lived in Toronto for a long time and didn't know that memorial existed. Cool!
