After breakfast our next stop will be the shrine at Knock. Here we will have the 12.00 noon Mass in the basilica with time afterwards to visit the Chapel’s Shrines and shops in Knock.

Back on our coaches we will then head straight to beautiful Bundoran beside the silvery sea. In this lovely setting our hotel will be the famous four star Great Southern with a fine beach and walks on its doorstep.

After check-in we will relax before dinner at 7pm. After dinner there will be live music and dancing.

When the dancing is over we will have the hugely popular sing song and storytelli­ng conducted as always by T.O. This always goes down a treat.

Note: This will be the formula for each evening in the hoteldinne­r at 7pm, music and dancing, sing song, storytelli­ng then bed.

Note also a full programme covering each day of our stay will be handed to each guest as they board the coaches on Sunday.

So here’s to Donegal, roll on the good times yet again. Let’s all have fun and live like there is no tomorrow. Here we go, on we go and away we go onwards and upwards.
