Tough to think of what C to go with today. I was at art class this morning so class was almost the C but there wasn’t a photo to go with it. I also found out I won a competition for flights from Ireland West Trad and although there was a photo I won with it wasn’t one taken today. Part of the challenge for me is to take a photo to go along with the challenge…don’t ask me what happens when I get to X or Z!!
So the C is for Castle. This is Classiebawn Castle in Mullaghmore, Co. Sligo. A really beautiful looking building. I would have liked to go down on the rocks to get a better photo but last time I did that I fell flat on my backside!! So you’ll just have to make do with this photo.
I had a walk around Raghly Harbour after my visit to the castle (not in the C mode, although the calf would pass, but I wanted to share these photos with you anyway).
It was an absolutely beautiful day here in Sligo today and I even had a picnic đ Let’s hope the nice weather stays for a while.
You’re an ambassador for Sligo!
Congratulations on the win-hope the flights come in handy! That’s my favourite sculptural piece of all.
Thanks Frances, so far the kids have booked the flights!
I wasn’t sure if my comments showed up. Somehow WordPress doesn’t like me. Love your posts!

The photo of the castle is beautiful. I am so glad you didn’t limit yourself to C photos so that we were able to enjoy the additional scenery today!

Your photos are excellent. I think the castle from that distance is perfect, and thanks for the bonus pics today.
Thanks DL đ
Wow a castle! Castles have a mystical element which is always fascinating!
Thanks Sia, I love castles and there are a few of them in Sligo.

Thank you Ruchira đ
Wow with that blue sky it looks like a summer day!
It felt like it too đ
Wow, well done on your win
Sligo isn’t a county where I’ve spent a lot of time when in Ireland, for me C is for Clare đ because I have Clare ancestry.
I adore that photo of the boat -the colour contrast is fabulous and I have a fetish for boats in harbours…and a sunny day in Ireland as well đ
Also love that little calf.

Thanks Pauleen. My grandparents are from Clare and I had a great brief visit there earlier in the year. I aim to go back again soon. We’ve had a few sunny days this week….a miracle.
