Travels Through Ireland: Rock of Cashel



While Sandi was here we took a road trip to County Kerry. On the way there we stopped at a magnificent site- the great 4th century fortification of Cashel - the stone fort. This was the seat of kings and mediaeval bishops for 900 years and flourished until the early 17th century. It was known as a "Stronghold of the Faith."

This is another example of something we've seen that photos really don't do justice. Perhaps they lack the feeling of knowing that you are walking in rooms that were used over a thousand years ago.

nice video - not so sure about the music. Good to see your header photo on your main page is centered now - it was a bit off-centered before.
