On our last day in Ireland we drove through Connemara. This region in the West of the island has a unique landscape and is covered almost entirely by peat bogs. There is very little vegetation in the area, and the stormy weather gave the journey an eerie yet peaceful feel. We stopped by a lake to do some scavenging for rocks and artifacts. Pictured below are some pictures of Pauline wading around the shore and our chariot, the VW Golf.
Along the way we stumbled upon a mother sheep and lamb. Upon seeing us they both ran away into the middle of the road. Not the best idea considering the oncoming car visible on the horizon. On top of this, the lamb chose to stop directly in the middle of the road to suckle. Evidently it was a nervous eater.
