dungloe river sights

For the last six weeks we weren’t allowed to be more than 2km away from our home for exercise purposes.  A few days ago the restriction was updated to 5km.  Also, people 70 and older were allowed outside after cocooning for the same period.  We celebrated by taking a longer walk. :)

    Nice to make such a walk. Not much risk of getting covid there I think,

    A fine celebratory excursion. Your plant is Bogbean - a less than pretty name for an attractive plant.

    Good catch of those tiny blossoms on the river plant. Glad you're getting to stretch your walk a bit further now.

    The trails will be filled with people now, Bill! People over 70 were not to go anywhere for exercise?

    Un buen paseo por la margen del río y que a la vez ha servido para captar buenas fotos.

    Aquí estamos en la fase de andar una hora y no alejarse más de 1 kilómetro.

    Besos

    Longer walk means more to see. Love the river photos. Is it too cold to swim out there yet? It looks refreshing.

      The water is very cold right now, not right for swimming.

    Hi Bill! How wonderful to see your part of the world. Ireland is one place we have been wanting to go to but haven’t yet managed. We will though. Both my sister-in-law and daughter-in-law are Irish and Scots Irish. My son and daughter-in-law spent several months working on Lambay Island.

    I'm sure that walk felt wonderful. We're again allowed back into the park across from our home. Spending time outdoors feels like a gift to the soul.
