Last Day: Ireland

They had to kick us out.  

"Stay as long as you like!  But leave now because the St. Patrick's Day Parade is going to start.  No seriously, leave now."--Castle Markree

Some blue sky and sunshine at last!

Bye for now Markree!!

Z had the joy of driving these narrow, twisty roads.  Beautiful scenery!

Lunch stop in Kinnegad.  Best lamb stew in Ireland!  (if anyone wants to send me around Ireland to taste them all and make that title official--I'm in!)

Rain on the right--view from our airport hotel.

Rounding out our stay with some more Italian cuisine--Yum!

It sleeted, rained and hailed, and finally, snowed...
