We’ve been going to rehearsals with Samboeira, a samba band in Sligo, for a while now. It took us a few weeks to get ready for St Patrick’s Day parade. It is very rewarding for beginners like us to be able to perform in a parade! 54516582_10216101433442383_6380833762623619072_o.jpg

The parade we participated in was in Kiltimagh, county Mayo. Lovely place, and we were even lucky with the weather – it rained for only a few seconds during the parade!

Special thanks to our “cultural attaché” Del Thorogood, who always takes us out to cultural events!
