To wander through ruined chapels found by chance along the road.
The Bishop's Quarter.
To marvel at the extreme silence.
To take the cliche photograph of Ireland..it would have been just wrong to have a blue sky here!
I love the inscription on this more modern gravestone.
A good motto for life I think.
It seems that a few people are enjoying my Irish holiday along with me.
Don't forget all the pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them.
Thank you for your comments.
(I am slowly working through reading the 600+ posts I missed while I was away.)

your lovely photos are stiring the travel bug in my soul. I'd so love to go there sometime and I love your term 'soft weather' !!!
I sure am enjoying your photos!
Beautiful, atmospheric, mysterious! I've never been but it helps me understand why Ireland is full of poets and dreamers .... Thank you for sharing these lovely pictures.
What a wonderful expression 'soft weather'. That modern gravestone is a work of art in itself, beautiful.
Such beauty....austere at times...but beauty all the same.
Thank you for such.
I loved reading these posts - I've never been to Ireland, although I've long wanted to. Your photos and the stories make it seem every bit as magical as I imagine. x
OK, Ireland's sky is not always blue, but this country has a soul. I have been there twice, and will certainly go back again. In the meantime, I enjoy your pictures. Thanks!
More beautiful photos Jackie - I love the unspoilt charm of Ireland. I love that sentiment too and the Celtic stone cross. Don't give yourself backache reading too many posts!
Absolutely lovely photos Jackie, thanks for sharing them with us. I agree with you about that charismatic sky ... it speaks of Ireland. I love your photograph of the ivy berries. I have a little post with them coming tomorrow ... xoxo
I've been to England & Scotland, but have never had the pleasure of visiting Ireland. Now I feel as though I have!
Beautiful I love the description of soft weather, I knew just what you meant.
Beautiful photographs and what a beautiful gravestone too. That is certainly a motto for life.
Oh, I do love graveyards....that modern one is wonderful....
Take care
