Trip to Galway: Connemara (4)

After the previous day's exhausting excursion to Inis Mor, we decided to take it easy on Sunday and go on a bus trip to Kylemore Abbey and Connemara. Tours are offered in abundance in Galway, there's a choice between lots of operating companies.

We went with the Galway Tour company, a bus full of people. The bus took us to Kylemore Abbey first, I will write about this beautiful building next.

 We also saw a wishing tree, where clothes of the sick are hung so they get magically better:


I didn't quite understand why this is so special, but the tour guide kept pointing it out. So this is Connemara turf:

 

This is a white horse that's friendly with the tour guide:

 
This is Ross Errily Friary:
