As Vince said

"A man, or woman, should be proud of their heritage. Although many of us often reside in "new" countries, and we adopt the customs of the "new" country, it behooves us to never forget our roots. It's what makes us who we are."

I lost my Scottish accent 6 or 7 generations ago and then it got watered down with a little Vermont and Pennsylvania Quaker - mom still proudly shows my pictures at the age of 3 with my kilt of McGregor Tartan.

The most fun I always have when traveling is to view and respect the other cultures. Do Dimitri good luck on the upcoming ceremonies, you are a good man to honor your heritage and traditions - although if I was wearing the tights I would have to ask my wife if they make my butt look big...

The white pants I am wearing (part of the Fustanella) are not always that tight depends on the person wearing them. How should I put it, the tailor makes the whole suit based on your sizes, but the pants are made to a pattern whether or not they fit well. So in my case the pants are a little tighter then they are on others who have skinner legs. Very Happy
