A shot at Glendalough, in the background is old cathedral with its original roof.Apparently it is unusual for old cathedrals to still have their roofs.   It started to rain while we were there.

On the trail to the lake, there are two lakes-The Glen of the Two Lakes.  We only saw one.  Not enough time to walk down and see the other.

A shot of the Lake, a very majestic spot.

A shot of me in front of the lake with a fallen log.

A waterfall on the side of the path.

Me standing in the rain in front of the water fall.

Some of the cool building.  I want to say that they used: blood, hair, and other interesting stuff in their building techniques.

A shot of the Cathedral.

Me in front of the Cathedral.

The cemetery at the cathedral.

One of the extra excursions we chose to do was go to Glendalough- The Glen of two Lakes.  The little brochure says "This sacred site is famous for it's tranquil beauty." This was a very true statement.  I wish we would have had time to see both lakes, but there just wasn't enough time.  Our guide rushed through some of the history because it started to rain.
