As we were northbound on R519 just south of Ballingarry, Co. Limerick, we spotted an ice cream cone sign and quickly wheeled in to the car park, piled out, and trooped into Snow’s Country Store where our choice was a plain ice cream cone or a Flake 99. The poor storekeeper was faced with trying to explain something that is apparently ubiquitous in Ireland but was totally unknown to all four of us. Three of us were brave enough to try the Cadbury treat and loved it!
Bath, England is an amazingly inviting place with deep deep history. One little day trip isn’t anywhere near enough but we did enjoy delving into the history of the Roman Baths, basking in the beauty of Bath Abbey, and topping our visit off with Tea and Bath Buns!
Today’s excursion to The Victoria & Albert Museum established in 1857 gave us a glimpse into the Victorian world and a chance to see some glorious originals and copies up close.
With Karen’s sister, niece, and her family we visited Stotfold England to walk in the footsteps of ancestors and to explore a lovingly restored historic water mill.
