We slept in pretty late today, then tried not to wake Ciaran who was sleeping in the lounge as we grabbed our guitars then went back up to our room and played for a while. After a while (and at a very decent time) we went and woke Darren, then went to sort out our washing. When we came back downstairs, Darren was gone, so we headed up the street to a little bakery where I got a sandwich and Daz got a chicken curry, then after we ate we went back to the house. We ...

We woke up today and showered and got ready then met Darren and Joshua downstairs and had a chat in the lounge about a bit of Irish history, then we all walked together down the street. Daz and I stopped at a bakery for some food, so Darren and Joshua kept walking to find a cash machine. When we met up again Joshua had gone. Apparently he had gotten an invite to the sound check of the classical orchestral performance he was attending that night, so he'd gone off ...

Today Daz and I didn't wake up until about 1:30, and thought we'd better get up, so we got ready then headed downstairs. And no one else was awake!

So we had another jam with Darren and...

We got up and packed quickly then went and checked out, then sat in the common room for a while with Sean who was waiting to get swapped into a different room. After a bit we said bye to him and made our way down to the bus station (not the one next door this time, unfortunately!) and put our ...

Today we got up and headed back over the border into the republic. The border follows the river boyne, but at Derry it jumps out and goes around the town, so the town is considered Northern Ireland. We stopped at a supermarket to pick up some lunch for the day, then headed into Donegal and to Glenvaugh National Park. When we got to the visitor centre we got on another bus which took us in to Glenvaugh Castle. We got a tour of the castle which had rooms on display...
