    In the spirit of the reminders to the Quest, the Quaich will begin its journey here in Victoria this weekend.

    Its next destination (Going in a westerly direction) will be with CDNSushi in Japan.

    Calendar for the Quest?

    Is there a way to set up a separate calendar for the Quest so we can "at a glance" see it's progress? Or is that just laziness on my part?

    Also, how does one go about becoming an actual 'destination' on this journey?

    The quaichs are gorgeous, btw...!

    Good for you Steve; under the circumstances that's the very best place for the Quaich to start!

    It is 11:00 pm, and I have just returned from the inaugural hosting of the Quaich -- which is still going strong. After supper, many in the original group returned to the Freedom Kilts shop, and sipping scotch are energetically debating all number of important things. I am going to bed. There will be photos in later posts.

    Big Mikey and Holy Hector share a quiet moment in the afternoon sun.



    We manage to get Sisu (Mikko) away from his kiltmaking for a moment.



    Jewddah and Dave (Erin #1) make a grand entrance. As starving students went immediately went to the buffet.



    We all then begin to mosey over to dinner.
    Holy Hector, Chris (Bligeplug)and Mrs. ThistleDown.

    RB51 and Susan heading to dinner with Macman.



    Alex, Phyllis, and Mrs. Holy Hector are getting hungry.





    Somebody forgot to tell Mikko that we were leaving.
