Happy Mother’s Day to all of you mothers out there!We had a little time this morning to walk around before meeting the choir at the bus. Here is the city on a beautiful, sunny day.
I am writing this on the coach as we make our way from Belfast to Dublin. If it seems a little disjointed, blame it on the incredible scenery that I keep looking at in between sentences.The choir was split between two wards, and thoroughly enjoyed mingling with the members of the wards. Sundays are often the favorite days of tour. I hear the choir was featured throughout the meetings, putting together spontaneous performances. It’s not really a stretch, though! A quick lunch was eaten, and we met at a third chapel to pack the coach and be on our way—early, no less!I will try to take photos along the way to give you just a peek at the beauty here, but it’s impossible to really show you. This is most definitely a place to which each of us would love to return.
It was almost a three hour coach ride, so in between good Sabbath conversations many caught needed Sabbath naps.
We were greeted at the Dublin Stake Center with a good supper that was ready when we arrived, and we moved quickly into the chapel to prepare for our first fireside of tour.
We love the firesides, as they are a little more personal and allow for strong bearing of testimonies. The chapel was full, and the response wonderful. A great beginning to a new city.
