Here are some pics of Ireland, but only a small part of our whole inventory! It's hard to pick out a dozen from a hundred! But here goes:

One of our favorite "old" places is Clonmcnoise on the River Shannon. It was started as an abbey in about 500 AD by St. Ciaran and became a large religeous center by the end of the 12th century. It was plundered repeatedly by the Vikings, the Normans, and the Irish!

We visited Dublin one rainy day and saw a few of the sites, took a double decker bus tour.

We are lucky to have friends in Ireland to visit.
