Back to home

ça y est ...
la balade irlandaise est terminée.' Un oranger sur le sol irlandais, on ne le verra jamais ...' Bourvil
Mais un panneau laissant passer les canards,
ca ne paraît pas bizarre !

To put on, to take off, to tidy up, to put back...

Ah ça ira, ça ira ....

Connecting people isn't very easy in every part of Ireland.
I'm writing you from this ' kitchissime ' Victorian living-room !

So, just a 'coucou' from Killarney
Enjoy your 14 juillet !

Sun of the beach !

Roundstone, Connemara, Ireland
un jour de juillet
On dirait: Rondinara, Corse , France avec 15° d'écart !!!

Irish Culture

For all of you, blog-writers, books writers, poets, I send a limerick.
Your question now is : what's a limerick ?

It's a poem , a sort of Irish haïku with 5 lines and only two rimes. It must be also a little bit ridiculous !
There once were two boys from Cork
Who would only eat soup with a fork
What boys! said their mother
One is worse than the other
Should send them back with the stork!

D-Day !

On Saturday, we had a trip on Irishmor, the biggest island of Aran Islands. It's was a sunny day and we've burned our skin. Incredible, isn't it ? On this island, you can go for a walk (that's what I did) , you can hire a bicycle, or have a horse or a bus ride . On Sunday, it was completly different. We went for a Connemara Tour by bus .It was raining, but Connemara without rain is like ' une normande sans armoire ! as Thomas Dutronc wrote !
The busman wasn't a gentle man, he put us in a rushing travel: ' look on the left, look on the right, you can go down and take this photo, you can stay here one hour not a minute more ..... '
So I would have sing :
Baby you can drive my car Yes I'm gonna be a star
Baby you can drive my car And baby I love you
Beep beep'm beep beep yeah Beatles

Typical

You won't believe it !
I cooked a ' quiche Lorraine ' with all my french group for the international food lunch we've had on friday. Cooking a quiche in Galway without efficient 'outils' and restricted ingredients was a real challenge . Just have a look ! And the winner was Saudi Arabia, the second Italia , then ex-aequo : Brasil and Chile.
