I've just spent a long weekend in
Northern Ireland
attending a wedding.
Everything went well, and everyone had a good time.
One of the nice things during the wedding ceremony itself,
was that there was a piece of music played on a harp at one point.
This made a nice change from the organ traditionally played in churches,
and the acoustics of the harp gave a different feel to the church.
The harp player was Rachel Hair,
who has been playing the Scottish harp since a child.
We made a weekend of the visit over from England, and had a day doing some of the tourist stuff. We visited the Giant's Causeway which is quite a spectular piece of coastline, and Bushmills Distillery which makes Irish Whiskey.
