How to end the week well

Underwater summary of the week

Found in newfie, a natural smiley...

Well, it has been a great week, with the escapes to the beach Tuesday and Wednesday. I was back in town Thursday night, with the usual concert in Bourkes. This time it was Rarely Seen Above Ground ( R.S.A.G. ).
A brilliant artist drummer, I was quite surprised by the performance in a very good way.

Friday, was quiet at home, watching TV and chatting on FB. A bit of rest before having a rugby day, watching the French league, with a worrying prestation from ASM - hopefully it will be better next weekend - then heading saturday night to Thomond Park for the Munster-Leinster game. Not a great rugby game infairness but the ambience in Thomond is always good, even if the boys in blue managed to calm down the public.

Sunday morning brought by the sun, which was perfect for a nice spin to Kilkee. A full good hour snorkel, a nice hot chocolate cake and small catch up with the diving buddies....

In summary: good music, good company, the sun, the sea, some rugby game... what else can you ask for.

Snorkel under the sunset

Another sunny day in Ireland, as a result I went for a short snorkel in WhiteStrand near Miltown Malbay (Co Clare) after work. Ended meeting the Burren SubAqua club on a small testing gear dive.

Ready to go in the water.... at least my fins are

Great visibility and color - under water

Another nice sunset ....

Perfect Day...

Irish sunset on the beach

It seems Irish summer has come early upon us, as a result I decided to leave work early and enjoy the waves of the Clare coast... well that was the initial plan... Nevertheless it feels good to be out in the sun, on a beach.

Here's a couple of picture of the sunset of this gorgeous day in Lahinch:
