Blarney Garden Path


After kissing the Blarney Stone, we walked through the grounds - which are very nice. They did this raised walkway with compositie wood board that worked really well. I figure what else are they going to do when it rains everyday.

Another lesson in traveling through Ireland - don't do anything or don't don't do anything based on the rain. We walked into the grounds of Blarney Castle and it was a miserable downpour, so bad that we were thinking of taking refuge in the pub for the rest of the afternoon. But we forged ahead, and 10 minutes later we were on top of the Castle (roof long since gone) and it was clear blue sky for miles to see - freaky weather.
