So, at last here are some photos. This was the first morning, on Barleycove beach, just outside Goleen, where Sheila lives.
I think you can see James' mum Joan (right) was very pleased to see Sheila.
As I sat knitting in the window, this was my view, out over the Atlantic. Unfortunately yarn shopping oppertunitites are few and far between in Ireland. But I did do some actual knitting. For those of you who are familiar with the Shipping Forcast, in the distance is the Fastnet Lighthouse. We had a clear view from the house, but it's too far off for this pic.
It was lovely to go up and see Elli and Eddie in Galway. They met 5 years ago when Sarah, Elli and I were travelling in Ireland (sorry for the grainy pics!).

This is my favourite view, just outide Killarney, when we were driving back from Galway.
And, I really wish I could have bought this......
A great trip, as ever, I love Ireland.

Ireland really is fab! Definately all the best people come from there ;)
Your pics made me feel quite homesick.
Glad you had a lovely time!
Wow - lovely pictures. Blue sky as well. I love blustery beaches.
Your trip looks incredible. I'll be looking into visiting myself. Thanks for the lovely photos!
Beautiful! I've never been to Ireland, but it looks amazing.
Lovely. Glad you had a nice time. It's lovely weather for knitting. You must have done a fair bit, did you?
I so need to go to Ireland! It looks gorgeous!
Gorgeous! I got your postcard the other day! It made my day! Am still putting together a little package for ya. Need to get my shit together and get to the post office! LOVE the photos! We were supposed to all go to Ireland with the in-laws this summer, but had to put it off because of dad, but hopefully next year!
