My D Daughter was a highland Dancer and now my grandDaughter dances competively. Thus we spent many summer weekends attending highland games and festivals in our area. I love the music of the pipes and the beautiful swirling colours of the Dancer's kilts. And most exciting of all are the awards ceremonies at the end of the day's competition when the Dancers receive recognition for their Dancing skills in the form of medals and/ or trophies for the highest scoring dancers who receive a high aggregate trophy.

I love highland dancing. Here in SW Ontario, we have several highland festivals and watching the dancing is a must when we go. Congrats to your granddaughter for winning for her dancing.
How amazing... and what a talent too.
Wonderful choice for D, loved this post ...brings back memories of long gong days when I danced as well
Have a wonderful ABC-wednesday / - week

I've never seen that kind of dancing. It sounds exciting.
I've seen it. It's exhausting just to watch!
