Our trip to Ireland ... September 2012

Day 6 ... Saturday, September 22

We had breakfast at the Granville Hotel in Waterford and then got on the bus for a day of touring.  We visited the Rock of Cashel.  The GoAhead brochure promotes this as "an outcrop of limestone dominating the surrounding Tipperary Plain.  On this rock stand the ruins of the ancient seat of the kings of Munster."  This included St. Patrick's Rock, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Cormac's Chapel.

We then returned to Waterford and the four of us ate lunch at a little deli.  Tom guided us on a tour of Waterford, which included a visit and tour of the Waterford Crystal plant and store.  After that, we went with Jack Bushill, a local guide, on a walking touring of the city.  We had dinner with Paul, Gail, Bob and Donna and then returned to the hotel bar for a Smithwicks or two.

These photos were taken in Cashel, Tipperary and Waterford.

on to day 7
