Highland Games - Antigonish, Nova Scotia - Did you every go...share with me ....
My family roots are in St. Andrews, Nova Scotia, section called Maryadale. My Grandfather migrated to US in early part of 20th century. However, my grandfather, uncle and father often would go back to the Highland Games in Antigonish, NS. I understand the games are in July, and they are a rather long period about a week or so. I would eventually like to go to the games, return in tribute to my grandfather, uncle and father. However, I have been to the website, looks impressive, but would like to hear from folks who actually go or went to these specific games. Is it as large as it looks? When is the best three days to go? Is it worth the expense and the time? I would like to learn more not from the website, that makes everything look good. Recommendations of where to stay? Standing by and hope to hear from people. Thank you.....
