Ireland: June 17, 2011 (part 2)

Blarney Castle 
After Garnish Island, we continued our journey to Blarney. This is where we stayed the night at our last B&B. But before stopping there for the night, we stopped at Blarney Castle: The Home of the Blarney Stone. It wasn't on our itinerary, but our guide said we had to visit because it would be a real treat for us. 





It was tall! Can you
see short me?

We climbed 100 steps to get to the top of the castle and it was no easy climb! Some of the stairs were very narrow but it was still fun to climb. So they say...if you kiss the stone then you receive the gift of eloquence.
