Happy Saturday!

Believe it or not, we saw 5 rainbows yesterday! It was misting for most of the day, so every time the sun came out from behind a cloud, there would be a rainbow somewhere nearby!

After spending the morning cleaning and doing laundry (and waiting for the teenagers to wake up), we went for our usual walk down to the beach. The ocean was very rough and it was high tide, so we couldn’t walk very far, but the sun was wonderful!

We borrowed a DVD of Mary Poppins from the library a few days ago. This was Thomas’ favorite movie when he was little, and we watched it so many times! Now it is Nora’s favorite as well. Then we found out that Mary Poppins Returns was playing at the movie theater right here in Dingle, so that’s what we decided to do on Saturday afternoon. The theater was tiny, having only one screen and 115 seats (yes, we counted). The owner worked the ticket counter and his wife worked the concession stand, which actually were the same short counter. He looked at our crowd and had pity on us and gave us all the child matinee price! All 6 of us (Thomas had already seen it at home when he worked at the movie theater) had movie tickets and a snack for 44 Euro! I would estimate that as less than half price compared to a movie at home. Here’s the secret to their low prices…they don’t turn on the heat! Oh, and they don’t make popcorn!
