Highland Games


The kilt wearing Pipe band members wait their turn on a death defying ride.


















We loved the cheeky dragon rollercoaster at Halkirk games.
















The flags at Helmsdale Games.

















Indy's house of fun was fun for the kids, and a little bit nerve wracking for the grown ups.




















Thrilling.

The kids spent all our money on this ride.




















Fantastic painting.










It has been a while since we posted because we had such a busy summer with lots of work and play. We have enjoyed visiting various Highland games across the far north and here are a selection of images. We really enjoyed the fairgrounds as they reminded us of the fairs of our childhood, and the kids loved them too. As well as the fairground rides the Highland Games are full of things to see and do, lots of great local produce for sale, lots of dancing and music, and the games of course.
