    Dunedin seems quite similar to the Gaelic of 'Edinburgh'

    The city seems quite proud of its Scottish heritage and this is a big event there. They have a very nice parade on Friday evening. The city also has an excellent grade 2 pipe band- one of the best in North America

    My wife, who grew up in Dunedin, said just the other day that she would like to go to the Highland Games there, perhaps in the next couple of years. I of course, did not object.
