Drive to Mizen Head!

We had beautiful weather for our journey to the most southwesterly point in Ireland.  Here, the landscape is wilder and more rugged.


Along the way, we stopped to see an Altar Wedge Tomb where people have been worshipping for over 4000 years.  


The drive is dramatic as the roads are narrow and winding.  Larry is a fearless and has had little difficulty driving on the opposite side of the road!

Once at the Mizen Head Signal Station, paved pathways take us to the edges of the cliffs.


The views are spectacular!

Back in the car and it’s time for lunch. We stopped at the small harbor village of Crookhaven.  Our seafood chowder arrived with a basket of brown Irish bread!


Bon appetit!
