The Scottish Tale

The deep rooted Celtic presence in Galicia is apparent in so many ways.  This particular area would be called pastoral with its green lush fields with grazing cows and sheep. There is a distinct fragrance that accompanies us all along the way not to mention the evidence that is left all over the trail.  We are convinced they herd them up and down the trail several times a day to make sure everything stays fresh!   All of a sudden we thought we heard music accompanying the new dance steps we were using to avoid wearing the evidence. Then we were certain there was not only music but bagpipe music out here in the middle of nowhere. He really was excellent performing everything from Amazing Grace to the theme from Brave Heart.  Then not a mile down the trail, we came upon a gentleman hiking wearing a kilt so it really was a Scottish day.
