The Skellig Islands

Postby BirdbyBird » Wed Sep 16, 2015 1:50 pm

This isn't the only place we hiked on this day but it was one of the hikes that we had been practicing for all trip. We just didn't know it. All ten of us make it up and back, with no need for an airlift from the small helicopter pad that has been installed in recent years. Of the ten of us, Liz was only the second oldest. Danielle's mother Ann had ten years on me and more than 20 on a couple folks. :)

There are advantages to slower days at work, as I'm trying to see some blog posts. Great post, great pictures. I don't know if there'd be enough time in the day for me to make that climb up ... but I'd have tried. Absolutely stunning.
