We reluctantly left lovely Galway and braved many narrow roads and many sheep blocking the road to arrive at Connemara and Kylemore Abbey. Kylemore is like Downton Abbey except its in Ireland not England, and instead of rich people Benedictine nuns live in Kylemore and instead of favorite characters having love affairs and getting killed off,the nuns pray in the nearby mini cathedral that the Owner built in honor of his deceased wife. OK Kylemore is nothing like Downton but it is lovely as are its prize winning Victorian gardens.
InAthlone tonight near yet another castle. Love to all. Loving Ireland especially the sheep except when they graze in my road. I know I know they were there first.
