Nestled in the rolling green hills of Carragaline in County Cork, you'll
find the O'Shaughnessy residence..


And nestled withing the O'Shaughnessy residence you'll find
Declan's 6th grade graduation photo, a red sequined cowboy hat,
and his framed Starsky and Hutch imprinted mirror. This alone
was worth the trip
.


The O'Shaughnessy crest. We stayed here with Declan's sister
Fiona for a couple of days.


Then we waited in the middle of nowhere for a bus to hopefully come by.


Faith got a bit bored after an hour or so, and started leaping about.


Next stop was Blarney Castle, about a half hour north of Cork. After
ditching our bags in a local shop, we headed for the castle.


This was a kick-ass castle. And the surrounding grounds
were equally impressive.


This thing was tall.
