Jo`s diary York and Hannifan family visit to Cork for Niamh birthday bash.
Thought I had
better write a web diary seeing as me and Nick are back on the boat. Where to
start…. Well it’s raining so I have found this to do in the dry!
Joke!! Me , Mum and Nick
have joined the boat in cork, lots of reasons, it was Niamh`s birthday yesterday
so we joined in with the birthday fun and have got to meet her family and
friends which has been wicked because we’re really happy how well its worked out
that she joined the boat. And of course we want to congratulate the two salty
sea dogs on their round the world trip. Their both
looking great!! The rest of the
Hannifans joined us in Thursday the rain
had cleared and we went for a lovely walk to a Forte Kinsale and had a picnic, Dad then cooked
us a classic Penguin meal followed by a knees up with the Hannifan`s in the
Moonshine pub, listening to some Irish music and catching up on the last months
apart. Really lush night. Friday we went
into cork, rang some church bells {Dad got to see the inside of a very very big…
clock} said bye to Ed, we then hit the Jamesons Distillery, interesting to see
how Whisky is made, we brought home a slightly pickled Nick but he got a
certificate to say that he was a official Whisky taster. Niamh turned up after
dropping some of the worldly goods she had collected back home and we went for a
birthday meal with her family. I think everyone at the table was pretty proud of
what penguin and her crew had achieved. Back home
tomorrow for work, Dad will be leaving here on Sunday too with Niamh and her
younger brother Shane, so we better start thinking about his return on
Friday.
