We Have a Booking... 2nd July
With all the uncertainties around us in these past few months, it has been hard to know how to proceed with our plan to follow God's leading to move from Portugal to Greece.

“Statue of Manannán Mac Lir on Binevenagh Mountain, on the Bishop's Road near the viewing point.”
