    Sligo... and all the way up to Donegal

    May 14 in Ireland ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Look at the terrible weather we are having on this trip..... Fair amount of driving today. We tried to go to the Megalithic Cemetery near Sligo but it was closed for works... went to the Sligo Abbey and then to Parkes Castle on Lough Gill.. Very nicely rebuilt.

    Then we visited the grave of W.B. Yeats (poet) and one of the few High Crosses in Ireland.

    And finally, into Donegal town. Visited the Donegal Heritage Train Museum... Gary is happy.
    And then to the Donegal Castle.
