Highland Burning of the Boat


On our way back home this weekend we stopped in on the Jakarta Highland Games which was celebrating it's 19th year. Talk about multicultural! The best bag pipe player was awarded to a Sikh from Malaysia. The winner of the caber toss was an American and a energetic troop of scarf dancers from India stole the show.
We enjoyed the traditional boat burning when kilted Scotsman ignited a mock boat with staves to signal the end of the day.
