Cliffs of Moher panorama view The grandeur is unbelievable... You can actually walk right to the cliff edge!

	Turn right to follow the path to O'Brien's Tower...
	Stunning coastal scenery just beyond O'Brien's Tower

	A stroll through this magical Tolkeinish land...
	Ireland has the most beautiful countryside I've ever seen

	Cead Mile Failte! (Gaelic for 'One Hundred Thousand Welcomes') Slea Head on the western coast of Dingle Peninsula. Dingle's energy is so unique - very ancient and haunting
	Slea Head a bit further up the road My B&B was nearby in Ventry: Mount Eagle Lodge If you're heading to Dingle stay here for a friendly welcome, reasonable prices and stunning views!
	Path to ancient Celtic Dunbeg Fort, down by the shore
	Dunbeg Fort The peninsula is chock-full of ancient ruins such as this one
	View of Clogher Head from Dunquin

Scenery from Clogher Head looking to the northern coast of Dingle. See the 3 bumps in the middle? Those are called the 3 Sisters.

	A snaking road through the center of Dingle takes you high up to Connor Pass. The views will astound you...
	Gallarus Oratory Over 1300 years old, this watertight, perfectly symmetrical structure was made without mortar - only rocks fitted perfectly together. Pretty amazing...
	Kilmalkedar Church One of the many ancient ruins still standing on the peninsula
	Kilmalkedar Church A look inside...
	The ruins of Riasc Monastary dating from the 7th century
	Though in ruins, Riasc seemed to me to be so alive. I kept sensing ghosts of little children running around -- then on a nearby plaque I read the site had once been a children's graveyard
	Ogham stone at Riasc

	The charming town of Killarney With friendly people and gorgeous scenery nearby, once I arrived I didn't want to leave!
	Everywhere are B&Bs and souvenir shops...
	Unlike American homes, many homes in Ireland do not have front lawns, but rather have driveways extending the entire width of the house, often with ornately patterned masonry.
	Killarney National Park Entrance to this glorious green park on the outskirts of Killarney
	Knockreer Estate

Exploring the inside...

	Ladies View By far the most beautiful spot on the Ring of Kerry, in my opinion.
	Ladies View A view fit for a lady...

	Of all the castles in Ireland, to me this one was the most fantastic. Located just south of Shannon on the western coast, it dates from the 15th century and stands unrenovated. A stone spiral staircase takes you up 5 flights!
	A look inside... So much is left intact after all these centuries
	Climbing almost to the top looking out on the glorious countryside
	Looking down from the very top...Don't fall!

	Dating back to the 5th century, this impressive building stands proud atop a high hill
