Jan 28th No 21 Explore - Again a surprise explore. 2 Sundays in a row with the same building. I suppose when you live next to something and see it every its not as impressive as if you've never seen it before.

The Alhambra blew me away but maybe if you lived in Granada it wouldn't seem so impressive.

Blarney Castle Watchtower

At the top of the castle lies the Stone of Eloquence, better known as the Blarney Stone. Tourists visiting Blarney Castle may hang upside-down over a sheer drop to kiss the stone, which is said to give the gift of eloquence. A Must see location!

Surrounding the castle are extensive gardens. The grounds include a poison garden with numerous poisonous plants, including wolfsbane, mandrake, ricin and opium, as well as cannabis.

happy st. patrick's day
