Beeeeeeeeeautiful

I long for the oppurtunity to visit the emerald isle.

OK, now I'm really in trouble. My wife is of Irish descent, Lynch, and will want to go there if we ever get the chance to head to Scotland. Better get a larger penny jar

Great pics! The castle looks to be in good shape. Who lives in it?

Also, I like the fact that the restuarant in the 4th picture now offers outdoor seating. That is all I was waiting for before planning my trip!

Who lives there?
Appears to be descendents of the original family

Dublin is just half an hour's flight from Glasgow or Prestwick airports and fares are very cheap if booked in advance - Aer Lingus from Glasgow or Ryanair from Prestwick for the equivalent of around fifty dollars return, so you can come to Scotland and stay with P1M and fit in a day trip to Ireland during your stay!!

I've come to that conclusion myself while planning next year's trip. Can't come over and NOT at least take a day trip over to Ireland. Several Ferries too depart not far from P1M.

Nice pics.

have to save even more pennies. :rolleyes:

cessna152towser,

Great pics, especially that shot of the harbuor...that brings back fond memories of April '93. Being a bit of an old salt myself, Howth Harbour held a natural gravitational pull for me. I hope to get back there in October 2006; I just wish I could boat my way back rather than fly (don't have $700,000 for the boat).

Thanks for sharing.
