    Off to Rio de Janeiro with 2 kilts

    Hey all

    My daughter and I are flying down to Rio on Thursday to attend a very huge 60th birthday party for my Aunt Solange. We intend to stay for over a month YAY!

    My mother in law was nice enough to spend a week sewing up a kilt out of half a 9 yard belted plaid while she was visiting this last winter. I don't think she knew what she was getting into, but all there is to do now is to add a liner and install buckles.

    Both my MIL and Aunt *insisted* that I attend my Aunt Solange's party wearing this kilt.

    I have worn my Mother in law reproduced Utilikilt in Rio before during Carnaval, and to an Iron Maiden concert.
    I got some really significant reactions....
    I don't know if they thought I was a cross dresser or what, but they sure as heck were very curious and maybe a bit shocked seeing a masculine guy in a skirt such as the likes of me walking around.

    I'm going to try to wear my kilts as much as possible down there.
    I haven't before outside of special events because my wife worries and thinks I might get beaten up or shot????

    Anyways....I'm excited and wanted to share the anticipation
    Wear your kilt proudly, but carry a big stick

    Parabéns! E parabéns a sua tia, também! Boa viagem!

    I hope to see photos and to hear about the Cariocas' reactions to the kilt.
