Today’s prompt is: Where was the last place you travelled to, and why?
My last trip was the Australian Celtic Festival.
My friend had mentioned her penchant for Celtic music, so we decided to book tickets.
I knew nothing about Celtic music even though I have Celtic roots within my family.
There were a lot of people, men and women in kilts, a lot of pipe bands, parades and performances running all day and half the night.
We stayed a good 45 minutes from the venue, so it was a pleasant drive each morning.
I discovered a fabulous array of performers. Concert performances were held throughout the day, and each one was well worth the price of admission.
We thoroughly enjoyed the Celtic festival so much we have booked to attend next year.

While I enjoy Celtic music … I like the bodhran, have one of my own … I think one pipe band would be enough. Although the Northumbrian pipes are kinder on the ear.
My favourite band was Murphy’s Pigs a group of guys who played and sang some great songs. I was surprised how good the musicians were.
Sounds like you enjoyed it.
We certainly did
🙂
Very nice — and exactly 120 words. Bravo!
Celtic music can be haunting. It pulls you in and you feel as if you’ve been taken to another plane of existence…another time.
Very true, though I did enjoy the rollicking ones as well.
