letterkenny town park II

This is the entrance to the herb garden in the Letterkenny Town Park.  It is a nice and quiet place unfortunately some the herbs were pass their growing time and were probably picked.  I have no idea if someone oversees this garden or if people can pick from the garden when it is in bloom.  I would imagine they have permission.  It's a nice addition to the town park.


A bench to sit in the shade


a guide to show you where the different herbs are planted


another bench to sit and relax


 some of the herbs already were pass their growing time

letterkenny town park

Last week we took the bus and headed to Letterkenny for a few hours. We walked to the Letterkenny Town Park aka The Bernard McGlinchey Town Park to spend some time and enjoy the park.  We had been there before and it is truly a beautiful park.  An enjoyable day indeed!

The entrance gate to the park using the The Bernard McGlinchey Town Park name.


The wall with the Letterkenny Town Park name is to the left of the gate and completes the using of both names as you enter the park.


The park area is circular and allows people to walk around it similar to a track.





Just in case you need some extra energy, there is a bakery on site, just follow the arrow :)


If there are kids or adults playing in the middle area don't worry, seats are available and built in so you can sit and watch.




A partial view of Letterkenny from the park.


The spire you see is the Cathedral of St. Eunan and St Columba.

CDP theme day - My City's Skyline

Moville, County Donegal, Inishowen Peninsula, the town we call home.  The view is from the bottom of the road leading into town.  If I waited for nightfall and the lights to come on, I still would be waiting :)  No tall buildings or skyscrapers here.

stranded until

Down by the pier, these boats have been sitting there for most of the summer.  Not sure what their issues are but maybe they will get back in the water sometime soon.  Time will tell.

throw it

I happened to be walking down by the pier when I saw this dog.  He was playing fetch with a stick with his person and was waiting for it to be returned.   Unfortunately for the dog, the game of fetch had ended.  He wasn't ready to leave but his person was and he finally gave up and left.
The white house you see is the Ark House which I highlighted earlier.

This was the prize at the end of my coastal walk the other day.  It's amazing to see such beauty!
