Sligo, Ireland

Sligo, in the north of Ireland, is our next destination. It is known for its literary heritage and rugged landscape. Unfortunately, the cool, cloudy weather that has plagued us throughout continues, with some light rain thrown in! The poet WB Yeats spent a lot of time in Sligo.

In the afternoon we drove the short distance to ”Carrowmore”, a neolithic burial area. Following that we motored out to Rosses Point, with two beaches and a very highly rated golf links course. It was cold and windy, but the sail boats and sailboards were out!
