The Scottish Walk

Alexandria Virginia is a city rich in Scottish heritage and once again served as the gathering site for more than 100 clans and pipe and drum bands from far and near with their faithful companions, the terriers and hounds. The city of Alexandria partners with The Scottish Government to celebrate and sponsor the annual parade. It was a mighty cold day but it did not seem to stop 30,000 from lining the streets of Old Town Alexandria to watch the parade and partake in the weekend long festivities around town. Mary Deane, Dee and I met at a coffee shop and Jeeves, dressed in his Scottish coat and leash, led us to the parade route!
