Day 15 - Sunday is a day of rest!
 |
| Lahinch Beach was very calm and restful this morning |
Well after my big day out yesterday, I had absolutely no plans for today - except to get my washing done!
Started off slowly and went to Mass, then went for my usual walk along the beach

Once again Marie kindly offered to help me out with my washing, but she wouldn't be home until 1pm so that gave me time to sort out my blog from yesterday,
It was such a great day yesterday and there was so much to report on, that it took me quite a while to finish that off.
Then I went up to the Shannon's house to put the washing on.
While I was waiting for it, I asked Ellen and Patrick if they would play some more music for me and they were quite keen to entertain me! Ellen was very chuffed with the comments that people wrote on the blog after her last little video.
This time Patrick offered to go first and he was playing the accordion. Actually the instrument itself was his Mum's - Marie's - and they had it done up for him.
He went and got dressed up especially for the occasion!!! What good taste that young man has!!
Then they got together and played a duet...

So that's just about been my nice peaceful day of rest. My washing is not quite dry yet, so I came home to write this post and then will go back and collect it soon. It makes such a difference to have clean clothes and to be able to start again when you're on the road.
Nothing too exciting today - but then again you did get two posts in one day!
What talented kids, love the Irish music, always makes me want to get up and do a jig.
ReplyDeleteWaking up to that beautiful countryside every morning would be amazing. Cheers Col
Yes the Irish kids all seem to have that music gene. I love listening to them too!
DeleteYour "Homeland" is truely special Moira, so beautiful. How lucky to have a private concert.....the two of them sounded great together. Maybe we'll get a concert every washing day ! Safe travel Maria x
ReplyDeleteHey Maria... yes I just spent today on the Curtin farm. It's beautiful land up there. I must remember that - to record some more music next time I get my washing done. I was so grateful to Marie because I was down to my last pair of socks today - had to put my Hawks socks on!!! :)
