I then went to town where I saw the memorial to the Lusitania (pic. 2) who's victims were housed in the town because the ship went down nearby. Somewhere there was a memorial to the Titanic but I couldn't find it.
I then climbed up to the Cathedral pictured in the first picture for Ireland. There was an interesting row of houses (pic. 3) across from the beautiful cathedral (pic. 4).
My last stop for the day was the town museum in an old church (pic. 5).
It was then back to the ship for the folkloric show where we were treated to Irish dancing.
The scenery on the drive to the castle was lush, green and breathtaking. It had been a wonderful day despite the rain and cold.
Back in my room I requested my suitcases be delivered so I can pack tomorrow. I also confirmed I had switched to the direct flight back to Denver. I will get in 8 hours earlier than I had anticipated!

Hi Michelle,
Hard to believe, but it's the end of the World Cruise for you... and for all of us who've been following your great blog. Thanks for sharing your trip and experiences!
I've particularly enjoyed your Egypt report, and hope to visit it myself one day.
Save journey home, and happy homecoming!
All the best and kind regards also from Arnold,

Michelle,
Thanks for the lovely pictures of Ireland; what a nice way to finish up the trip. I didn't get to that end of the country when I visited, but absolutely fell in love with Ireland and so want to go back.
Hope you have a safe trip back, and am looking forward to seeing all the extra pictures you didn't post when we get together for Indian food!
