I am so impressed with the St Andrew's Society in Sao Paulo. We went to their Caledonian ball in October, and it was great fun, so we were keen to go to the Burn's Night, which was held a few weeks later than it should have been in late January, but I don't think anyone minded.
Scottish dancing is so fun…though we are really clueless and very dependent on the Scots there to help us out! I did eat a bit of haggis….not a huge fan at all, but it would have been rather rude to decline! The champagne flowed, which helped the various poems pass! Ode to Haggis did make me smile though. I do love all of their toasts too. It was such a fun sense of occasion. There was a full on Scottish band, and plenty of bag pipes and kilts about! If only there were more Welsh of us here….
