Glendalough
























I have been told to go to Glendalough since I got to Dublin (it's pronounced Glendaluck and means valley of the two lakes) and finally went there yesterday with my buddy Liam from work. It is an ancient monks settlement in amongst beautiful fairyland forest and bushland. It was pooring rain yesterday also so it looked all mystical which really added an extra touch of the fairies. The towers and churches the Monks built are still there - after 1500 years - pretty amazing stuff peeps.

    Would love to go to Glenalough - features as a major place in the book "Dublin" (by Edwin Rutherford)- was a major centre for the serious thinkers of the time - when monks were doing great things. Looks great!!
