Our ears are still ringing from the big barbarian percussion troupe Albannach. Our feet ache from all the walking from one booth of Irish and Scottish tchochkes to the next.

In other words, the 2009 Valley Forge Midwinter Scottish-Irish Festival was its usual amazingly good time, and just the perfect warmup act for all the madness that is March.

Hibernian or Caledonian, there was plenty of fun for everyone, from Rosemarie Timoney’s dance classes to the stacks of meat pies and bridies to the tunes of the Hooligans. For the kids, there were sand bottles to fill and a juggler to exclaim over.

We have total photo and video coverage from Denise Foley, Jeff Meade, and Lori Lander Murphy.
