Kissing the Blarney Stone
A postcard from Ireland – there is no date given but probably from the early 1900’s.
I kissed the Blarney Stone in a similar way in the late 1960’s. It was not a pleasant experience but I sort of felt obliged to follow the custom. Is it only for tourists?
Skerries Ireland
Day 9 – Arriving at Galway and the Irish Coast
She got up early at 6 to a beautiful sunny day. She sighted land at about 7. Watched getting ready to unload, saw officers on the bridge. Gulls appeared. Bleak hills, darling islands. Stopped at 9:30 for tender to take off people for Galway.
Sheep in Ireland
A postcard from County Wiclow showing sheep in the Wicklow Hills, 10 miles south pf Dublin.
Surprise Postcard
I was surprised to spot this Irish postcard recently at the Postcard Collectors Club meeting. Not a usual scene but one I happen to know. Greystones is a charming little town about 25 miles south of Dublin. It was a popular destination from the North particularly.
I don’t recognize the stamp but it is an Irish one and the card was posted to friends in County Antrim in the North.
