    Alex, I am curious how the Ventura Games compares to the Games you're familiar with in Scotland...
    Ventura was comparable in size with a big international games in Scotland, such as the North Berwick Games. Ventura had a lot more clan tents, also the Clan March is a particularly emotive part of the games which is all too rarely done in Scotland.

    I enjoyed the pics of the games, especially the pipe bands and the clan tents. Too bad there was not a MacIntyre among them.

    Great photos.

    Good to see my old friend Richard Brown and his Highlander Warriors made it down to the games.
