| Tree with flowers outside of Yeats' Tower |
|
|
I thought that the way the flowers were around this little tree was really quite pretty, I think that I forgot that I had B & W film in the camera, but it's still a decent pic.
|
| Sam and Dennis |
|
|
This older gentleman invited us into his quaint home and it really was a wonderful experience. Sam is sitting on his lap while Dennis sings her a song.
|
| Yeats Tower |
|
|
Yeats Tower from the outside forest. Captivating.
|
| River outside Yeats' Tower |
|
|
This is the little river outside of Yeats' Tower, could you imagine being a little kids with woods and a river outside like this?
|
| Victorian House? |
|
|
We took a tour in this really cool old house. Neat huh? Look at all the chimneys!
|
| River outside Yeats Tower again |
|
|
Another part of the river through the foliage. I just loved the little river. I wish that I could live somewhere like that.
|
| Magical Forest |
|
|
Absolutly amazing forest. The ground was covered in shed leaves and ivy. The ambiance of this forest was truly captivating. Felt like I was in a different world.
|
| Stone Wall |
|
|
Looking down a stone wall, I loved the sheer beauty of the lichen on the stones and the repeating pattern.
|
| Lonely Irish Road |
|
|
This quaint Irish road in the country was just one example of the small roads that criss-cross the countryside. I fell in love quickly.
|
| Jen, Heather, & Lesley in Killarney Cottage |
|
|
The three girls that I stayed with in Killarney, our last stop on our way out of Ireland. They were great companions.
|
| Ivyed Doorway |
|
|
Neat little ivy covered doorway in a little broken building.
|
| Ireland from atop a hill |
|
|
Looking down onto the wonderful fields that cover the landscape of Ireland.
|
| Idol on a stone wall |
|
|
A little Mary idol with a small cluster of flowers on a lonely stone wall. This just caught my attention in the middle of nowhere.
|
| Grown over house |
|
|
This was a common site in the Irish countryside. There were many abandoned stone houses grown over by creeping plants.
|
| Graveyard on the West Coast |
|
|
Small, little graveyard in the South West of Ireland. Wonderful how many are put next to each other. New next to old, I just thought it was amazing.
|
| Flowers |
|
|
Beautiful flowers outside of a cave. These flowers grew right out of the rocks.
|
| Elder Tree |
|
|
This tree had to be hundreds of years old. It was amazing. I like how the people in the bottom right show you the scale.
|
| Dead Tree in Garden |
|
|
This twisted tree trunk was laying in the middle of this beautiful garden. The starkness of this dead tree in the middle of so much life was beautiful.
|
| Corcomroe Abbey Wall |
|
|
One of the remaining walls in this old Abbey. Though the roofs were long gone, the walls stood stong.
|
| Corcomroe Abbey Gravestones |
|
|
These gravestones were laid side-by-side on the ground inside the Abbey. It hought that it was really amazing the way that the Irish take advantage of every inch of space.
|
| Looking through an abbey doorway |
|
|
This doorway was too small for an average sized human to fit through, but it was there. I was curious as to what it was intended for.
|
| Corcomroe Abbey from a distance |
|
|
That's the Abbey in the backround. In front is yet again another over grown house. I liked the way that they lined up
|
| Caves in Ireland |
|
|
Inside these beautiful caves. I don't know what the little swirlies are, but it's still a cool pic.
|
| More Irish caves |
|
|
Here is another picture of the same caves. I really liked the neat formations.
|
| Candle Holders |
|
|
These were these awesome little candle holders that the older man in a previous picture made. They are beautiful.
|
| Broken Gravestone |
|
|
This gravestone was broken and it looked like someone attempted to put it back together. Can you imagine the time that it took to put this back together like that.
|
| Baby Gravestone |
|
|
There seemed to be too many of these kind of gravestones. Someone had planted some wonderful colorful flowers around this gravestone. So sad.
|
| Sunset over the bay |
|
|
Beautiful sunset over the bay outside of these cabins we stayed in in Ballyvaughn.
|
| Ballyvaughn cottages |
|
|
These are the cottages we stayed in. They are very quaint.
|
| Ballyvaughn Bay Boats |
|
|
These little boats sat out in the bay anchored down. Cute little bay.
