First stop Irish Embassy

We paid a courtesy visit to the Irish Embassy in Lisbon, as they had some Ireland-Portugal lapel pins for us to wear at our performances at the festival.
The staff were lovely and we left them some Tayto and from Cavan we had some Áine's chocolates and a piece of Elena Brennan jewelry.
Pictured here are Carmel Gaffney, Fidelma Sheridan, Mags Amond, John from the Embassy, and Terry O'Connor. And President Higgins on the wall behind us!
It was a great start to our five days in Lisbon.
