Ireland - Part 2

Ireland Part 2 is all the pretty and interesting things I saw whilst in the area we visited. I'll make a few notations on some photos, but after Part 1.... just enjoy the pics and short notations.

Following Part 1, which was dedicated to Ann and my ancestral visit, Part 2 is just fun and pics.

Getting to and onto the ferry at Holyhead Wales and alighting the ferry at Dublin Ireland and getting out of Dublin was such fun - not!...triple stress! My friend remained cool at all times and my blood pressure was off the scale. Wrong turns, wrong lanes, wrong Terminals - eeek!
flowers of Ireland
village and town streets - pretty buildings




churches of Clones Parish and a little beyond


and some stunning Irish countryside

some Irish critters

things we saw from the car







arriving at Enniskillen for a look around - the Castle, Churches, riverside walk 



heading south to Ballyconnell (cute place) and to the stunning Hotel Slieve Russell for grilled Paninis and the best coffee I have ever tasted in my life - Foyer dining style. You choose your plush lounge and are served right to your coffee table with silver cutlery of course.

    Sat in the plush lounge just under the stair case

continuing to Slane Castle - awesome! It has been home to the Conynham family since the 18th century. The old stables houses a magnificent Irish Whiskey Distillery


time to head for the Dublin port for the ferry back to Holyhead Wales

arriving Dublin port ready to board!

...its been a whirlwind 'mission-accomplished' type of trip 

An deireadh!  look it up!
