Another day, another place to visit, this time it was Emo Court in Laois. I have been to Emo Court a few times in the past and it is always worth a visit. Today, we took the house tour, stopped for tea and Lemon Cake and then walked around the lake. The water levels in …
Carrickbrennan Graveyard
As part of the Summer of Heritage, Dun Laoghaire Rathdown have opened up Carrickbrennan Graveyard for tours every Tuesday and Thursday. I joined one of the tours last week, and it was fascinating. I have passed the gate that leads to this location many, many times in the past without realising what it led to. …
Saltee Islands
I visited the Saltee Islands in Wexford, which is a bird sanctuary 5km offshore, so that I could take photos of Puffins. I wanted to focus on Puffins during this trip. This is one of my favourite places in Ireland, I love how peaceful it is, and how close you can get to the birds. …

Kilmore Crosses
I have passed this pile of crosses many time in my life, on the way to Kilmore Quay in Wexford, I was always curious about it, I have now found the answer (Thanks Google!). Today, I decided to stop and take some photos of it, before it vanishes at some point in the future. This …
Irish Rock ‘n’ Roll Museum Experience
I took part in a tour of the Irish Rock 'n' Roll Museum Experience in Dublin in September. This museum has been opened for about 18 months, and I have to say, it is definitely worth a visit. I have added to the list of places I will bring visitors to Dublin. The Nirvana poster …
Corlea Trackway
I took a trip to Longford to see the Corlea Trackway. It was an interesting place and I would recommend people visiting it. Entrance to the site and the tour are both free. Our Guide Noel was so informative about the Trackway and the general area. It is only with the development of the Ancient …
