The Ring of Kerry and The Skellig Ring










We have seen a number of fairy gardens on our tours and will be building our own in the woods on our property after seeing the sheer joy as kids discover them hidden among trees and decorated with a range of kitsch and cleverness. 

The roots of a tree, still alive and formed to create a tunnel along the fairy garden path 


The Skellig Rocks - a site where Christian monks established monasteries from the 6th to 12th century. Amazingly isolated and impossibly barren, it is a marvel that they could have been inhabited. Currently there are tours (next time for us) and it is one of the most important bird sanctuaries in the world, as well as a UNESCO world heritage site. 
Along the Ring of Kerry, a ring of Stella's hair circled the Skellig Rocks in this photo. Good to be lucky.
