Travel in Republic of Ireland : Connemara, Galway and end

En francais
We saw more of the beautiful Connemara landscape before arriving in Galway which is one of the most famous city in this part of Ireland. To get there we took a road called "the sky road" which offer one of the best scenery in Ireland. We then visited Galway and a castle north of it before starting on our way back stopping in Ashford Castle and to see a waterfall.

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.
