Doolin

I was minding my own business in my B&B room when I heard a helicopter approach. I landed 20 meters from my room! It seems the landlord's son is a bit of a local celebrity.I am staying tonight in Doolin. This is a far better music venue than Lisdoonvarna. I was enjoying a rather bland set of Trad music when a pair of visiting musitians arrived. Twas something to experienced. Picture dualing banjoes but the competition is far more sophisticated!

Anyway, before the visitors arrived, my request for Derry Aire without lyrics was honored. I was flummoxed, gobsmacked, and whatever else you wish to describe it. It brought tears to my eyes.

I toured the Cliffs of Moher. Very impressive. I have photos.

I met a local legend musician named Seamus (James) Cullinan. It was entertaining watching him chat up a girl from California. If I return to Doolin, I will get him to play Peggy Gordon. He is really quite good.
