It’s a short journey into the historic town of Waterford and we were able to find some on-street parking just a short distance from the Waterford Crystal showroom. We popped open our umbrellas and wended our way past the luxury motor coach tour buses (We abbreviate that to LCMs.) and into the lobby. Thought maybe we’d start with some refreshment but the cafe was full of folks wearing their tour name tags. Instead of taking a tour of the glassworks we watched the short video and then browsed the gift shop. The crystal is indeed breathtaking! A couple of us purchased some gifts and then we availed ourselves the lull between tour groups and savored some yummy pastries and tea in the cafe before heading out into the misty morning and more adventures.
Winter Magic in Medina
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
