Good morning again from Holly and me out for a walk on Lettergesh Beach.

Gorgeous sunny day here in Connemara ☀️

Holly had fun. She's so clever, knowing that she can't drink sea water and hunts down mountain streams running onto the beach.

Morning Tara

I'm in my element. I'm babysitting my sister in law's 6 month old baby, here in Connemara.

It's good to know I haven't lost the touch: fed, changed, chats and now asleep.

Walking down the lane from my sister in law's house. It's a lane lined with stone walls and old trees

Walking back up the lane, from the entrance. Holly a Border Collie is sniffing around.

Good morning from Holly and me out for our quick walk down the lane.
It's raining but sure it's Connemara.

Well go for a long walk on the beach later.

Have a lovely Thursday everyone 💖
