Saturday dawned cool and damp; not a heavy rain but enough to need an umbrella. We headed north to Maynooth to check out the "Garlic Festival". By the time we arrived the parking lot was full and cars were lining both sides of the road.
The market was bulging to overflowing with vendors forcing organizers to
close off the back street and park more vendors there. You can do that in small towns up here.
We wandered the grounds checking out the variety of garlic and chatting with many of the vendors.
We always meet someone we know at these events.
As you can see it was well attended and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves in spite of the weather. Lots of food to eat and .............
free entertainment put on by .........
Do you remember "The New Christy Minstrels" of the 60s? This wasn't them but they played well and were full of fun.
Needless to say we were delighted to have attended the
Maynooth Garlic Festival and will be back again next year.
Safe travels everyone and thanks for keeping an eye on us.
