    St. Martin

    Around the feast of St. Martin the children of our primary school always do a small procession with lanterns to the nursing home I work in. There they sing a few songs and parts of the legend of St. Martin are acted out.

    Afterwards we all meet around a big bonfire.
    Since a few years we have a piper who plays there:


    This year I was there in my kilt for the first time:


    My son was quite sad he didnīt wear his ... I told him that came from wearing trousers!

    Looking good! Too bad your son didn't wear his. But what did St. Martin do? Can you tell us the story?
