Last July 27- 28, 2013 was the Malahide Festival entitled , "Malahide Has It". It was a fun-filled day with lots of activities for everyone. My worry that day was the weather. I don't know if you heard but it always rain in Ireland. But that day the sun was smiling directly on us which made the event even better.
In every festival, Fun Fair is always there to make everything even more exciting for kids and adults alike. There were plenty of rides at the Malahide Beach. But I never tried riding any of it because I'm not in a good condition to do that.
In one of the busy street was the concert stage where I've caught this very good choir. They sang famous songs of Sister Act like "I Will Follow Him", "My Guy" , and "Hail Holy Queen". I was totally amused with their angelic voices especially the one with red hair. It's so unfortunate though because we were late to see them so I didn't get the name of the choir.
Just to let you know I used my camera phone to take all the pictures here. We decided not to bring the big ones so we can enjoy the day more. We'll probably go back next year for this event.

ReplyDeleteThis reminds me, I will have to visit the state fair for this year. Your pictures convince me to do so. :-)
ReplyDeleteAh, I love going to festivals! I'm not a fan of rides but I love sight-seeing, and I think I would be brave enough to have a photo with the python.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun event to witness and enjoy! I missed going to a an outdoor event like this for this year. Usually, we go to a Hot Air Balloon Fest. Hopefully, we could go to one next year.
ReplyDeleteYou were fortunate the weather is on your side that day... It's evident that you have enjoyed the fair so much... :)
ReplyDeleteNice festival to participate. Aside from the lovly ladies, I'll have to content myself playing chess with those Grand masters.
ReplyDeletewhat a very fun-filled interesting day..gee I feel scared looking at the lizard and the snake haha but yep I would love to have my kiddos enjoy such a marvelous event...hmmmm the chicken and mango smoothies make me hungry :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha gigantic giant connect four, I used to play with it before. :)
ReplyDeleteThis festival is a superb experience for everybody ( I assumed). Every member of the family whether the kiddos at any age, grand parents or just adults will enjoy the entertainment the event offer. There are some events that solely focusing in one theme that sometimes kids will not enjoy much. I would like to experience a fun filled event like this one.
ReplyDeleteThe chicken Ticka Masala looks sumptuous sis! I wonder how they cook that?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't dare hold the snake talaga. Medyo nakakatakot naman yan. Pero I can take seeing them inside the cage :)
