Exploring Donegal

We check out of Mill Park Hotel and heading to Glencar Waterfall! It’s become a joke with our guide and driver, Pat, is it an Irish “short walk” or is it truly just a short walk? Many attractions are tucked away and requires a fair amount of walking, some more challenging than others. As many of you know, Larry has had walking challenges over the last few years after tearing his Achilles. The waterfall was truly a short walk, a circle of stairs. Beautiful and serene, tucked in Ben Bulmen mountain area. Visited the remote area of Achill Island. Stunning natural vistas. Had a quick lunch at Kelly’s diner by Dominick Kelly’s Butcher shop in Newport, County Mayo. A quick visit to William Yates gravestone and checked into the Westport Hotel for the next two nights. Westport House, Ashford Castle and Falconry on the schedule tomorrow with lunch at the castle. We are both tired!!!!Read more
