view from my window in the wonderful little town of
Westport. My window sill was very deep and i sat there several time with my cuppa and watched the world go by. We went to Matt
Malloy's ( of the famed Chieftain's) the music was in the back back back room and we never made it back there, so we ended up at another pub. we were invited to sit with Pat and Frank a couple from county Tyrone who were in
Westport on vacation. What great
craic!

the city square in
Westport. It stayed light until almost 10:30 pm while we were here. I walked around the city for several hours, shopping and stopping for a scone and tea.
Westport is a place i would visit again.
