Well it is the last day for several in our group they will be flying back tomorrow. Sorry to see everyone go but hoping they have safe flights home!
Six of us will be flying on to Edinburgh, Scotland until Thursday.
Today was fairly quiet with one stop in Clonmacnoise, built in the 1500 by Kirhan who only lived to be 33 yrs old and died of the plague. It is located on the River Shannon between Galway and Dublin. The pictures will not do it any justice- I think you had to be there! It was beautiful!!
Mary and Libby walked all the way to the Malahide Castle and Gardens. However, it was closed. The gardens were gorgeous with beautiful trees and shrubs.
The usual 6 of us were hungry so after checking in to the Grand Hotel we followed our illustrious tour director, Cris, to the Gibney's Pub est in 1937. We had a late lunch or early dinner. Roberta had a great bloody mary so she just had to have another one! Cris got friendly with a man sitting next to our booth and talked him into taking our group picture. Then his wife showed up and offered his services for the day! But we opted to take a picture of him and his wife instead. Nice friendly people in Ireland!!
We are sitting here having a drink at the Grand Hotel in Malahide before leaving either for home or Scotland or Las Vegas for Karen.
Stay tuned for the Scotland adventure in the next few days.....
