IRELAND

Here are some photos of our family trip to Ireland and Scotland in May 2007.

Celtic High Cross in the Protestant Church yard at Drumcliff

The shrine at Knock where townsfolk saw apparitions in 1879. St. Joseph, St. John the Evangelist and "Our Lady" appeared before 15 official witnesses who watched the apparition for two hours. A Commission of Enquiry has been held several times to determine the validity of the claims and they have been upheld as trustworthy. All Popes from Pope Pius XII have recognized and honored Knock.

Inside the shrine that marks the location of the apparitions.

Kinvarra on the west coast near Galway.

On our way to the banquet and entertainment at Dunguaire Castle (1520) on the southern shores of Galway Bay.


Wonderful musical entertainment!


The main road in front of our Bed and Breakfast in Kinvarra.

Sheila, our gracious host.

This is the intersection of two "main" roads. Now which way?

The barren "Burren". The Burren had all the trees cut centuries ago and then lost most of the soil so it is miles of bare rock now
