After our visit to the Achill Island we decided to go to Galway through the Connemara.
Here are some pictures of what we saw on the road between Achill Island and Westport as well as pictures of our visit of the Kylemore Abey (Mainistir na Coille Móire in Irish) which was a private home and castle before becoming an Abey.

Travel in Republic of Ireland : Achill Island
En français
We decided to go spend the night in a camping on the Achill island. It is the largest island of the coast of Ireland situated in county Mayo. The next day we went to visit Baile Treigthe, the deserted village. I was kind of hoping to see ghosts but we didn't, maybe next time we should go there at night. If you wondered how we could go to the island by car there is a bridge between the villages of Gob an Choire and Poll Raithní.

Travel in Republic of Ireland : Sligo–Mayo
En français
After crossing Northern Ireland we arrived on the west coast of Ireland in County Donegal, Sligo and then Mayo. We drove alone the coast which allowed us to see the beautiful landscape. We first saw Bundoran, one of Ireland's most popular seaside resorts and the Sligo's coast before going to see
Downpatrick Head. Downpatrick Head is a huge rock in the Atlantic ocean that is cut from the cliff.

Travel in Republic of Ireland : Not yet
En français
So as I told you so long ago in the introduction in Avril 2009, we decided to rent a car and to leave Belfast for a long week-end to visit the Republic of Ireland. But to get there from Belfast by car, we obviously had to cross Northern Ireland. So here is a little bit of what we have seen in Castle Archdale,north of Enniskillen, at the border of Lough Erne (Loch Éirne in Irish) and Lough Erne.
Lough Erne are two lakes that are in fact a larger section of the river Erne.
