Powerscourt Garden

So We left Dublin and on our way to Powerscourt Gardens we stopped for Lunch at Jonnie Fox's.  It was a quaint little pub.  The tables were made from other things like a bed or an old sewing machine.
Then We headed on to Powerscourt Gardens

It is BEAUTIFUL!!!








All the above pictures are the House, Italian Garden, and Triton Lake
Next is the Japanese Garden

Then Tower Valley

In the tower 
Made it to the top
 Views from the top

Gate at entrance of the tower.  We had a lot of fun goofing off here!


More of the Italian Garden as we left.
We then headed to Ferns to see this castle.
But it was closed for off season so we did not get to go up in it.
We then Headed off to County Cork and found a hotel in Cobh
the Commodore Hotel It was right on the water in a building built in 1854.



Like I said a great view from the hotel room. We stayed two nights here so these pictures are from the next day. We arrived after dark the first night. And poor Andrew passed out after all the driving.

Hope you enjoyed another day in Ireland!
