Photos from Kent, the UK

Dear friends and partners,
I'd like to share some photos from magnificent Canterbury. I was there and think that it's one of the most beautiful places in the world. You can listen to the famous Irish song The Dubliners - Molly Malone. Hope that you will like it!
Many hugs and kisses,Reny


In Dublin's fair city,
Where the girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,
As she wheeled her wheel-barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
"Alive, alive, oh,
Alive, alive, oh",
Crying "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh".
She was a fishmonger,
But sure 'twas no wonder,
For so were her father and mother before,
And they each wheeled their barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
(chorus)
She died of a fever,
And no one could save her,
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone.
Now her ghost wheels her barrow,
Through streets broad and narrow,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive, oh!"
(chorus)

Oh, Reny! :) I was in Ireland, in Cork, 2 years ago, for two weeks. We sang this song at the course and the busdriver who drove us to the Cliffs of Moher sang it too. I have wonderful memories from there. Thank you for sharing with us. Hugs!

Dear Valy,
I'm glad that you liked it! Our teacher trainer in Canterbury sang the song. My colleagues and I liked it, too. "The Dubliners - Molly Malone" is popular. I think to learn it with my pupils. Hope that you will use this great song, too.
Many hugs and kisses, Reny
