Malin Head Donegal

Malin Head Donegal is the most Northern Point of Ireland and is mentioned in the shipping forecast.  It provides fantastic vistas over much of the landscape and country.  The ocean battering against the rugged headland is tumultuous and amazing to behold.  Here are a few shots from up at the old Tower, Malin town itself and the 'wee house of malin' which is supposed to have special properties and people visit the shrine and place coins in the ancient stonework.

Irish Pub

Hey all,

Another pic from our Donegal trip, I think this charismatic pub was in Clonmony?  Does that sound right?  Anyway the most depressing thing about Donegal was the number of 'Ghost Estates' we saw.  Developers picking a plot of land and building a whole new town there but no one has the money to invest so it was just beautiful but empty houses!  One thing I loved but don't have a picture of are the Irish phone boxes!  I know I'm weird but I'm a Doctor Who fan!  Anyway this is 'The High Stool' in Donegal and I just had to share!

Derilect House at Old Military Quarters Dunree Inishowen Donegal

One bright, sunny day, a rarity in Ireland, my best mate and I finally took a trip to Donegal, it was a bank holiday but we left REALLY *groan* early and hardly meet a single car.  Donegal is like the wilds of some foreign, countryside realm, beautiful vistas and turquoise waters.  We stopped at Dunree Fort and did some of the walks and then peered through broken, delapidated windows at the old residences, wondering what stories they ruddy walls held in secret?

We were disappointed that you couldn't actually get to the Lighthouse, private property, and envied the little cottage that it back unto!  Here are a few more pics from there, the OLD public conveniences! and  the amazing cliff top views.
