Who said the Irish can't do shabby chic - they were doing a thousand years ago (as evidenced by this cross)
After seeing the Cliffs of Moher we headed back to the interior (because let's be honest, the other way would have landed us in New York City). we went through the Burren. It's basically a plateau that sits on top of Ireland. Not the most highly populated place - but I'm sure if you had enough time to spend there you'd come across all sort of native species found only here.
Back to the shabby chic cross - this was one of the small towns we stopped at along the way. All joking aside, this was a pretty cool structure. I think originally this cross and three other similar ones marked the boundaries of the parish or something like that.
