Then we stayed in a CASTLE

The trip's other big turn-around (aside from replacing the flat tyre) was the night and day we spent at Dromoland Castle. 
The place was pretty sweet. 
The first thing we did? Have tea.
Lots of hunting trophy's (heads) all over the place. 
Though nothing like the museum of death we stayed at later (another blog).
Man these pots are huge!

Did you ever stay or stop at Ashford Castle? Not far from where they filmed "The Quiet Man" with John Wayne. (conamaera sp?)Actually some scenes where shot on the property.
Now that place is sweet!

That castle looks BEAUTIFUL!!! I would love to stay in a place like that. I could do without the wall of death though. Blech!

Enjoy your weekend Jorge!
