October 31 - Halloween in Cork

Before coming to Ireland, Bryan and I both did some research about Halloween in Ireland. Several of our travel books specifically said that Halloween was not celebrated here - they mainly did tricks, but no treating.

They were wrong...

Bryan and I had to go on a hunt for an inexpensive costume for little missy - she had already announced she was going to be a princess ballerina. Fortunately, we found something that we thought would work - and she loved it! We didn't do any trick or treating, but it was still a fun day. One of the big things they do for Halloween in Ireland is fireworks - so we heard those shooting off during the evening.
