September 9 - Limerick day

 On this day, I woke up around 9:00 because it was Saturday and we had to go to the city of Limerick (the closest city to our village), I showered and dressed, and then I went to breakfast, I had some delicious potato waffles. , white and black puddin (very typical, they are baked blood sausages) and fried bacon, and at 9.45, Liz took me to Kilmallock so the bus could pick me up (Dillon didn't go because he had training) and we went to Limerick. There we first visited the Milk Market, which is the most famous market in the city, and then we went to eat at McDonald's in the Crescent shopping centre, one of the most popular in Limerick. Afterwards, we returned home, and were dropped off at Kilfinanne, where Liz picked me up to take me home, but we changed our plans and we went to a Hurling match in Kilmallock, and then Liz came to pick me up. When I got home, I dressed comfortably and helped prepare a barbecue in the garden since it was a very good day, and at the end, we ate marshmallows and then we picked up. Afterwards we were chatting until each of us went to sleep.


Here are some pictures of this day:
