Sunday

This morning we slept in. Church didn't start until 11 am and we had no plans for before. We've been eating out once a day, buying food from the grocery store and having that in our hotel for breakfast and snacking for lunch. It's a fine system but I wish they had mini fridges for some milk or something in the morning. The water in the tap is super hot so we have been making hot chocolate with it and having croissants and bananas, or oatmeal. Tomorrow we'll have bagels and jam. 

We left the hotel with out our wifi and then lost our map setting shortly after that. We also left with no time to spare so we had some tense moments wondering if we would make it at all. Then in a stroke of divine providence we saw the building and arrived just as they were finishing up the announcements!

Church was a delight. They had a lovely musical number and 3 good talks. They only have a branch here in Limerick but it was pretty good sized. I also really enjoyed Sunday school and RS. We talked to some friendly members and I'm happy to report the church is true over here too.  I really liked Sister Faloon's lesson in RS. She teaches seminary, is the mother of 15 children and is from New Zealand (or Australia). I would be her friend if we lived here. We have lots in common like a love of not exercising and being poor member missionaries.

After we changed our clothes and went wandering. We saw churches and more cute doors. We visited King Johns Castle and St Mary's cathedral. We lucked out and came upon them rehearsing for their evening song performance. It was pretty.

Hannah's been working on her homework. 

The weather is chilly and overcast but really nice. The bummer is my photos are all dark and do not do justice to the beauty of Ireland.

Everyone's been getting along really well and our trip has been 5 star so far!
