Blarney


This is a picture from the outside of my hostile.

Yesterday I went to Blarney and took lots of pictures. Blarney village is absolutely gorgeous. The sun was setting as I was waiting to catch the bus back. The sky turned this absolutely magical orange, i don't have a picture of it, but it was beautiful.

Anyway, when I first arrived I walked around the grounds a bit before actually going up to the castle. Here are a couple of pictures.



And here's some of the castle itself.


And here's some of the Rock Close.





And here's some of my really muddy feet after a little misadventure. On the bright side, my shoes are almost dry, on the not- so bright side, my pants aren't.

And this is me in a really small tunnel!

I didn't realize that The castle was that high! how did you feel about being that high up? Aren't you glad you let that guy talk you into climbing up there? The scenery is gorgeous. I showed Eli and Margret May your blog this morning. They are ready to take a flight! Have you dried out yet?

Eli and Margret May should drop me a line. I was cursing and hyperventilating the whole way up. He actually talked me into kissing the stone. Yeah, my shoes are finally dry. My pants, not so much.
