It is still really cold in Ireland and they are predicting it will be the coldest December ever. Much of the country got more snow over the weekend although Kinsale remained mostly dry. Gwen, myself and the girls headed up to Dublin for some Christmas shopping in Dublin on Saturday on afternoon. The city was packed and really cold but we had a great day (even if I complained a lot!) and we got most of our shopping done.
In other new Sarah got an Irish Speaker of the week award in school. Not bad considering she has only been speaking "as gaeilge" for three months. In other school news I got the school's web site in production last week. It is pretty basic and there is plenty more to do but its a start considering they did not have a web site before this. You are welcome to take a look here.
That's all. Five more days to our first Christmas in Kinsale.
