We drive thru amazing

                                                                               countryside and stop to

                                                                               shop at some craft

                                                                               places.  I get my

                                                                               birthday present in

                                                                               Donegal Craft Village.

                                                                               It’s a hand built

                                                                               porcelain table with a
                                                                               hutch to match and







               two wee benches.  The hutch isn’t fired

               yet so they will ship the whole thing

               (£102) when it’s done.  It’s not the

               type of thing I usually buy but I fall in

               love with the tiny dishes, cakes and

               other goodies on the table and in the

               hutch.  It isn’t colored glaze on it.  It is
               made with different colors of

               porcelain clay.



               We go on into Donegal and I get £200 cash on my Master Card.

               M sees a painting in a store that she can’t resist – An original

               oil.  She gets it a little cheaper by buying it sans frame per my

               suggestion.  We eat at the Centre Hotel – chicken sandwiches

               and water.  I’m very thirsty.  I’d kill for a can of Diet Coke in the

               car but will have to wait till later.  We spend a bunch at the

               “Four Master’s Book Store in Donegal.  I get Celtic T-shirt, 3

               gold pins, 2 ceramic pins, birthday cards etc. (£40).
