This was a Good Day by Ken in Ireland
The pilgrims from Charlotte N.C.arrived today in the beautiful Emerald Isle of Ireland with glad hearts and prepared to drink in the culture explore a few sites and make some memories together.
Following a time of prayer and thanks for safe travel we set out to explore an ancient bronze age fort once home of the mighty chieftains of this land. We took some photos and headed off to see our first castle. We explored the monastic ruins next to the castle and took in the high cross at the center of the field between the castle and the monastery.
From there our travels brought us to our home for the next few days in the rolling hills of Esker. Here we quickly settled in to the beautiful surroundings against the soft rain that held off till we were at our “home away from home.” After a hot meal and chocolate fudge cake we quietly made a confident declaration, “this was a good day.”
