Class, can anyone guess what happened today in Ireland? That's right, Timmy. It rained.
I came to the conclusion that maybe Gienna doesn't like the "WHO'S DRIVING THAT CAR?!" game when she suggested taking a bus tour through Connemara. Mental note on that.
We were picked up at the B&B by Michael O'Malley of Galway Tours, and he was a fun, light-hearted tour guide. I have approximately six minutes to blog while Gienna gets ready, so--Gerty, roll the tape.

In Cong, location where The Quiet Man was filmed. I haven't seen it either. |

Monks used to live in this hut and fish through a hole in the bottom while sitting by a fire. Take that, Thoreau. |

Bus windows = bad pictures. But next to EVERY ewe was a little lamb. And they were everywhere!
The sheep whisperer was pleased by this. |

Kylemore Abbey was originally a castle a man built for his wife. Take note, gentlemen. |

It was raining sideways, so we didn't go the gardens at Kylemore Abbey.
But there was a mini recreation at the visitor center, so you're welcome. |

Face cutout! Yesss! |
Okay, it's dawn and we have a long day of driving ahead. Onward!
