Well, it’s been almost a month now and I think I’ve just about recovered from my trip to Westport, County Mayo to be able to start writing about it. It as a fantastic trip but very lively, and the 12 hour, minibus-ferry-minibus journey was a real killer.
I’m going to start with one of my favourite memories from the holiday – an evening out at Ballinrobe Races. It was cold, wet, I won sod all and I loved it – the atmosphere was a real adrenaline rush and a trip to the horse races is definitely something I’d be up for doing again.
I’ve had a tinker with iMovie to create a (very clumsy) first attempt at an audio slideshow, using the photos I took and a sneaky sound recording I made on my iPhone. You can watch the film above, or on Vimeo here. Hope you like it!
