Indians in Baltinglass Ireland

Leaving your hometown and trying to settle in a new place isn't always so easy. But if the new place is beautiful and the people around you are friendly then a place like Baltinglass is one of the best places to set foot in! Beautiful Baltinglass with Glorious Glendalough as it's right-hand man!

As a Malayalee, in India, I have been witness to some of the most beautiful places in the world. Kerala alone is a paradise for all Malayalees worldwide. While India is visited for it's Taj Mahal, a gem of a structure, Asia is remembered for God's own Country, Kerala! So leaving a beautiful place behind and stepping into a new place is always considered to be a strain. But as for the Indians in Ireland, Ireland is no strange country for any newcomer. It is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. And Beautiful Balto is home to few Indians too.

There are few Malayalees and Tamilians in Baltinglass. And so South Indian food is obviously in demand. Earlier there was an Indian Hotel run by few Bangladeshis but it is now moved to Carlow. Many of our friends reside in Carlow, Dublin and Bray. And each time they visit us they just can't stop admiring this wonderful Baltinglass countryside. There are also few other Asians in Baltinglass like Chinese, Thai, Bangladeshis, etc:-. Of course there are also Chinese and Thai restaurants in Balto Town.

“Snow in Baltinglass, Ireland!” “It’s snowing in New Houses, Parkmore...!” :)

Beautiful Baltinglass!!! It’s white all over... the Baltinglass Hills... :)

"So you can imagine what it is like when the whole place is covered in snow. Of course too much snow does have it’s toil on us- we can’t walk without slipping, cant drive without skidding and can’t get out of our home due to Snow Block!"

Now I have seen what snow looks like! Beautiful Snow! When I came to Ireland, I was already mesmerized by the beauty of Ireland. Ireland’s Natural Beauty- especially County Wicklow where I stay in Baltinglass, is simply fascinating! And my first meeting with Ireland was in the Summer. So you can imagine what it is like when the whole place is covered in snow. Of course too much snow does have it’s toil on us- we can’t walk without slipping, cant drive without skidding and can’t get out of our home due to Snow Block! But when you keep all that aside, stand in front of your window and stare out to the Baltinglass Hills and nearby mountains, you just can’t stop admiring how beautifully white the entire place has become in just a matter of a few hours! The hills, trees and roads...it’s everywhere. It’s white all over! Beautiful Snow Beautiful Baltinglass!!!

Beautiful Baltinglass and Glorious Glendalough!!!

And if Beautiful Baltinglass still looks good despite being under all this snow, then I can imagine how much of the beautiful scenic views I am missing of Glorious Glendalough at this moment which must be under a huge paste of snow by now!!!

Our family friends invited me to join them for a trip to a bit faraway place, Glendalough, back in the summer of 2009 just few weeks after I arrived in Ireland. It was my first vist to Glendalough as well. It was wonderful! I couldn't stop clicking snaps in my camera from the time I reached there. A real good memory. And though Baltinglass isn’t as big as Glendalough, the beauty is the same! My admiration for Baltinglass is almost the same as how I’d be admired by Glorious Glendalough! And if Beautiful Baltinglass still looks good despite being under all this snow, then I can imagine how much of the beautiful scenic views I am missing of Glorious Glendalough at this moment which must be under a huge paste of snow by now!!!

Wicklow – The Garden of Ireland : Snow in Parkmore, Baltinglass Town...

Snow in the night time from Carlow to Baltinglass

We were returning back home from Carlow to Baltinglass in the night and few minutes before reaching Baltinglass Town, it began to snow lightly. At first we thought it was just sleat but within seconds it turned to snow and we were really excited. Though it was only the start, the tiny snowflakes were coming right at us and onto the windscreen. So we geared down and was cruising along slowly laughing happily at the falling snow. By the time we reached Baltinglass Bridge, it stopped and we stopped at Balto Town and parked in the free parking area behind Baltinglass Library and beside Fulvio’s Takeaway and Baltinglass Fire Station for a few minutes but quickly headed back for home as we realised that it was going to snow more heavily. Again, this is my first experience of snow and also the first time while driving in the night time. And the whole time we were listening to a song called 'I will rejoice' sung by one of our favourite Gospel singer Don Moen (who sang the wonderful song called 'God will make a way...where there seems to be no way'... :)... )

Here’s a short video clip I took at that time- Snow During Night Time Drive:
