Visit to Clare island
Wed 15th September 10 12:02 pm
This year for our summer holiday we visited Clare Island with our befriending group and all the Karen people in Mayo.
We hired a bus to take everyone to Westport and then we travelled to the boat to cross the sea to Clare Island. When we arrived we had a picnic on the beach. Then we walked around the island and some people hired bicycles.
We met a weaver and she showed us how she makes thread from wool and weaves on a loom. This is similar to how the Karen weave.
We had a lovely day and the weather was fine.
