The Waterford tour was excellent. I could have done a lot of damage in this store.
While the rest of the family went into the Jameson's brewery, Alana and I decided to try a little something more satisfying - two huge ice cream cones.
Just another beautiful castle dotting the green landscape.
Erin and Alana posing at the Rock of Cashel. The Rock of Cashel was the traditional seat of the kings of Munster for several hundred years prior to theNorman invasion. Few remnants of the early structures survive; the majority of buildings on the current site date from the 12th and 13th centuries. Cashel is reputed to be the site of the conversion of the King of Munster by St. Patrick in the 5th century. The picturesque complex has a character of its own and is one of the most remarkable collections of Celtic art and medieval architecture to be found anywhere in Europe.
When we went to the Rock of Cashel, over near Tipperarry, the old legend goes that if a person can touch their fingers around the whole statue, they will never have to see the dentist. . .looks like Lana didn't quite make it and will have to see a dentist frequently.
One of the best fish and chips place is called Ford's and everybody knows about it.
The next night we decided we had eaten out too much so we made a delicious potato cheese broccoli soup.. . it was excellent.
Here is the whole family just after we had presented Mom and Dad with a crystal pitcher designed specifically for them by Waterford.
This priory on the Manor property is lit every night and is a popular place to visit.
