Saturday

After smoked salmon and eggs for breakfast it was off to the french pastry shop for cappuccino, chocolate tort and a raspberry "marsh mellow". Then it was drive around the Burden where we stops at a dolmen and several shops to find things to bring back, including a new hat for me. :) Around 2pm we stopped for lunch at a pub in Kilfenora where I had a wonderful lamb stew. The owner wanted to know if I would like a drink with it and when I said no thanks that I was driving he assured me that I needed one to help me relax into the driving on the local roads. Interesting idea, but I passed anyway. As we talked and age came into the conversation he commented that he was "continuing on", ie getting older. I like that turn of phrase.

The next stop was the Cliff of Mohrer. I climbed while Jan sat and watched people. Interesting view of the Atlantic and the cliffs that are being worn away. Also a wonderful location to listen to a harp being played. Then back to Doolin where we checked out the 16th century church ruins and the pier.

Now for a little lie down then we will head to McCanns Pub (mate!) for supper before the tourists get there. Tonight we stay around for the music and try out the Powers.

Back from McGanns Pub. Had a good time with good food and good company. Shared a table with a couple from Galway, tried Powers (good, smother then Jamesons) and listened to some music. Now posting some pictures from the day, with help. Once I am done and this is uploaded it will be time to go to sleep so we can street fresh tomorrow.
