St Patrick's Day

[RENSHAW]

I count myself most fortunate to have met many great Irish pilgrims on the Camino - To all the Irish out there - have a great day.

Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields,
and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

Renshaw, when I was in albergue on way to Finistere with Sil, aka Mother Hen, as hospitalero two young German lads sang their version of

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
May the rains fall soft upon your fields,
and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.

I was priveliged to listen to lads perhaps in early 20's sing together. Yes, I know my own neighbourhood folk do the same, so bravo to all
