On Saturday we went to Blarney Castle.
I couldn't resist climbing into this bush and pretending I was a leprechaun! I even wore green!!
It's so much fun being with friends!
Entrance to a cave right by the castle.
We climbed the spiral stairs to the top of the castle. It was a long way up!
Looking out the castle window.
View from the top. A long way down.....
This is it! Elder Holt getting ready to kiss the Blarney stone.
Kissing the Blarney Stone....the legend goes, if you kiss the Blarney Stone you get the gift of gab, or some say kiss it for good luck!
Done! Sister Holt didn't kiss the stone that millions of people kiss and originally was a "powder" room if you know what I mean......
Elder Neely, Elder McBride and Elder Holt at the top of the Castle.
Looking down at Elder Hancock
Close up of the stone.
Beautiful flowers!
This is the house on the castle grounds. We took the tour. The family still lives there. They leave every morning at ten so people can tour their home! Crazy, but it was beautiful!!!
After the Castle we went to the Blarney Woolen Mills to shop! Wow, it was fun!!!!!
