Mallorca Sunshine and Darkness into Light
When our mother retired, she wanted to celebrate it by going on a holiday, I was only one who had time off around the time.

The day before the holiday, our mother got the bus up from Ennis, although it was raining when she arrived, once it stopped we made our way into town and showed her around. We finally managed to get her to House, a bar on Leeson Street and see if our cousin wh

Birthday & Marathon Shenanigans
The excitement for the Flora Women Mini Marathon, all started when Clodagh came up on the Saturday afternoon, we spent the rest of the day and night, shopping and catching up on all the gossip.

After all that, decided to check out the Dublin Port Riverfest, in the docklands. All 3 of us, w

Shaking Hands with the Dead
Although I got a phone call from work, for a last minute change of shift, I still met up with Niamh for lunch and culture with a difference before work that evening. After our lunch in Wagamama's, we strolled across Stephen Green towards The Little Museum of Dublin. The museum tells the story of the city in the 20th Century.
