The Rugged Beauty of the West of Ireland

We have been touring the West of Ireland and visiting with family. Our visit with my sister and her family was fantastic and long overdue.

The West of Ireland is our favourite part of Southern Ireland; we visited the Burren with my sister Joan and my brother in law Pat...  we are currently touring around Connemara and we'll be here until Thursday when we head off to visit with family in Dublin.

The weather has been a bit rainy at times, but we have been getting lucky with the sunny spells, especially in the afternoons.

Being into the final stage of our vacation, we would love to have another couple of weeks, but as my mother would say, "all good things must come to an end in order for more good things to begin".

Stay tuned for our next blog.
