Here's the latest article from the Irish Culture site at BellaOnline.com

The server wobble the BellaOnline.com experienced late last week has been fixed and all the Irish Culture articles have been restored.

You get a double helping of articles this week. Partly because it's Celtic New Year! Happy New Year! Or Halloween to the rest of you!

Irish Halloween or Samhain
Halloween, or Samhain, used to be the Celtic New Year. It is still an important festival in the Irish calendar, warranting, like St. Patrick's Day, a bank holiday. The ancient traditions always get a modern twist!

I've also posted another book review with a book that I constantly recommend when asked what one should read to prep for a trip to Ireland. Hope these recommendations make your Christmas shopping list.
