Galway 21.05.2015. BPW.









Dublin
We left Dublin in the morning. It was sunny, but since we arrived to Galway, it chanched a lot of time, but who care, we traveled in a comfortable bus, full of positive energy, smile and ......We traveled through well known Irish scenery, romantic, green lane,  cows, sheeps, ponies...Enjoy in images.

and before Galway, the SaltHill promenade.





Girls, behind your back is the Atlantic ocean, the umbrela is useless. Let go to the Victoria hotel. I think, that's quite enough for the memory. And the official part of the day started.






At the Chamber of commerce.







Let's go to visit Galway. Situated on the river Chorrib, coming down from the lake Chorrib. Under the Chorrib bridges a lot of salmons are waiting to start their way to the Atlantic ocean. Behind my back
is the rest of the Spanish wall, builted on the place, where once were the docks. Behind this Arch, on the west coast of the river Chorrib ar the area called Claddah coming from AN Claddagh, and means "ravna kamenita pustinja". . From the Middle Ages, over this this wilde and independent fisherman comunity stayed the King, and the last one died in 1954. And the legend of the ring of Claddagh, comes from this area, protecting the love of the girls to their fisherman lovers, and the ring passed from the mother to the daughter.

Five days in Ireland. BPW Pula Croatia. 20.05.2015. County of Wicklow. Glendalough - Walley of two lakes. Powerscourt and gardens.

Yesterday we finished the day with Trinity college.
The weather was very  changeable. The most interesting thing in the college are The Book of Kells,
sometimes known as the Book of Columba., due to the St. Columban, abbot, well known as a Founder of many monasteries all over Europe, like Bobbio, Italy, where he died in 616.  Illuminated manuscript, Gospel book,  in the Latin language, containing the four Gosplels of the New Testament, together with various prefatory texts and tables. It was created in an Columban monastery in either Britain or Ireland, or may have had contribution from various Columban institutions from both Britain and Ireland. The text is drown from the Vulgata, and Vetus Latina. Western calligrafy and represents the pinnacle of Insular illumination. It is also widely regarded as Ireland's finest national treasure. Probably was written at Iona, then hidden to Kells,  as the Vikings were devastign the Ireland.
 As we know that the Celtic were well know abbots whom had pilgrimaged  and spoken about  Christianity. Due to this Celtic coming back to the old Europe, obligated me to return to the prehistoric iron age. As we know the Irish speak english and gaelic,  and the so called proto gaelic. According  to a theory proposed in the 19th century, the first people to adopt cultural characteristics regarded as Celtic were the people of the Iron Age Hallstatt culture in Central  Europe (near Salzburg) (c. 800–450 BC), named for the rich grave finds in Hallstatt, Austria and later La Tene period (Switzland), (c.450 BC up to Roman conquest), this Celtic culture was supposed to have expanded by diffusion and migration all over the Europe, and to the British Isle - Insular Celts, France and Gauls, Bohemia, Poland, Central Europe, Iberian Peninsula - Celtiberians, Celtici, Lusitanians and Gallaeci, in Italy Canegrate, Golassecans nd Cisalpine Gauls, and the invasions of the Balka in 279 BC , as far east as central  Anatolia - Galatians. And now some images how we spend the our second day in Ireland. Images is better "speaker" then me.
The typical tower in Glendalough .
The most sure place for hiding the monastic writings, the vikings are in front of the doors.

Slikovni rezultat za james joyce pula At the start.
Terace of Coffee bar Uliks in Pula, where Mr. Joyce are sitting very comfortably, and the house where Mr. Joyce tought  English the Austro Hungarian Naval officers. In that time there was a school named The Berlitz school of Languages Pula.
 My dear Dubliner's ,  permit me to convey you the greetings from Mr. Joyce, with whom I had taken a spiritual coffee on the terace of coffee Bar Uliks, at Pula, from where I'm coming, with other members of the  BPW Pula, guided by Mrs. Alida Perkov, the president of www.bpw.hr and president of the forum www.bpw-danubenet.org and on invitation and cooperation of the President BPW Ireland , Mrs Carmen Taheny.
 He is sitting there,  always with cheerful spirit, looking on the passers-by, in their promenade or in rush under the Arch of the Sergii., and  further down the eponymous street to  the Forum Square,  and to the Coffee Miramare on the promenade in the Pulas harbour.

Sorry, Mr. Joyce, time takes its toll, we can't do nothing, just to enjoy in what  is there and what makes us happy
You are still young, as you were in the  1904. when you joined Pula with your beloved Mrs. Nora Bernacle.  Pula greeted you cold, as usually are the "siberian" winters, althought   the autumn even starts. 
Your novels, poetry are still here, we read them,  commenting  and mentioned them. In that way you are here with us already 110 years.  In that time you were well known writer, some of your novels you had finished, some of them you started to write here in Pula, for some of them you had only put down few ideas, and some of them sleept in your mind, waiting the right moment to be realized. And now it's the time to start.
