VM in Highland games =)

Today we spent som amazing hours at VM in Highland games here in Alsvåg. It was soooo cool =) Strong men lifting stones. This was the Stones of Strenght contest.

Todays contest was in honor of big Johan Arnt. A huge fisherman from Øksnes. He was 214 cm tall, 160 cm around the chest, 60 cm around each arm and 177 kilos. A biiig man =P

 Some bagpipemusic is a must at Highland games.

 Some of the contestants. They were 7 all together. Todays contest was to carry a funny shaped stone weighing 180 kilo for as long as you can.

Here is my darling son with the winner of todays contest, Casey Garrison from USA. This dude carried 180 kilos a whole of 123 meters. He broke the standing record!
 

And of course I had to get my picture taken with the winner myself too. Such a polite man =)
