Easter 2014

Camphill Mountshannon celebrated Easter this year with a predawn trip to Holy Island. We rowed across Lough Derg in the early morning, arriving in time to watch the sun rise. The silence in the morning was quite beautiful, with only the sound of water rippling off the oars. Once we arrived on the island, we sang traditional songs and waited for the sun's appearance over the water and trees. The sky was clear this year, and the sun rose red through streaks of pink, blue and amethyst. Afterwards we rowed to shore and had a very nice breakfast at Inis house, then an Easter egg hunt at Oak house-- a great time for everyone.
