We didn’t wake up until after 9 a.m. after another great night’s

               sleep.  We get dressed and I put a scarf on my head (gypsy

               style) and we go to breakfast.  The couple from the bar is there

               – they are from Boston and there are several other people from

               Boston also.  Three at one table are from England.  M cringes

               and says that the young woman is the one she thought lived at

               the B & B when we arrived and she’d asked her to get her

               mother.  They are at a smaller table with a reserved sign s0
               guess they don’t want to associate with the riff raff.  The


               weather is lousy again.


               We decide to drive in a loop through Donegal, north up the

               coast and then south to Letterkenny thru the National Park.

               We get a late start but can’t get motivated because of the cold,

               wind and occasional showers.



                                                                                 We stop at Kenney’s

                                                                                 Knit Shop and M gets

                                                                                 a sweater for her

                                                                                 daughter, Sally.  It is

                                                                                 a very pretty grape

                                                                                 wool and I get an

                                                                                 afghan in a brown

                                                                                 and blue plaid.  M is

                                                                                 quite upset about
                                                                                 whether to buy the


                                                                                 sweater or not
               because she has six kids (all grown up) and she isn’t sure she

               should spend so much on one of them.  I want to get Lori a

               sweater but not sure she could wear that heavy wool so I don’t.
