Cliffs of Moher and more







1.  Corcomroe Abbey from the 11th century
2.  House people lived in next to the Abbey.
3 St. Patrick carving on the wall of the Abbey.
4.  This house was in the village where we stopped for lunch and the flowers and color of the house were very attractive.
5.  Poulnabrone Dolmer:  burial site from 2500 bc.  Person was creamated elsewhere and bones were stuffed into rocks under this monument.
6.    Cliffs of Moher--now you see them and now you don't:  we had a very rainy day and high winds but were delighted to see the cliffs even briefly!

7. One of many castle ruins we saw on our tour today,.
Tonight we are in a quaint old hotel (former brewery) in Killarney.

  1. I'd love to see the cliffs...could spend a week there. Such history in the buildings. We can't touch that over here.
