St Patrick's weekend for us was spent in the gateway to the West of Ireland, Roscommon.
It was sort of like another world.

| The old castle on an island in Lough Key is like something out of mythology. |
We found castles, a windmill, a whole lot of fantastic craft beer in a wonderful pub, tasty local food, and more!
For now, enjoy this scenic photo essay teaser :-)

| The Child of Prague phone box, Roscommon, Ireland |
Lots in Roscommon was other-worldly, or of another time.
This old phone box, now home to a statue of the Child of Prague, kept away the rain from Roscommon's Paddy's Day parades!
Did he phone a friend?
There aren't many towns where a 5 minute stroll will bring you to an enormous ruined castle.
Fabulous.
