Nothing says Christmas like a wee spot of shopping in Belfast!
Tonight was the last night of the annual Christmas Markets, but we missed them this year, we were about an hour late. Unfortunately they had already started packing up.
Not to worry, there are plenty of shops in Belfast, so we weren't stuck! We went to the Disney Store and Lilah had her own purse, she made her first purchase, ever! A rapunzel doll. She was extremely excited about buying it herself. And when she sets her sight on something, she absolutely does not waver!
I cant tell you how strange and surreal yet absolutely lovely it is to see Lilah in places that I know so well, Jill. I've worked my way back to this post so I'm out of sync a bit BTW! Did you find it just "mind blowing" to be with your daughter in Portrush??? I know I would if I was there with Gracie.....walking about somewhere I spent so much time as a girl :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, sadly I saw a lot of neglect too compared to days gone by....it would be great to see some funding or re-generation going on there.
Ps Do you remember "dulce" as a child....did you give Lilah a taste???
