Ireland Day 10

Day 10 – Friday, July 10
We went to Carrowkeel passage tombs. Passage tombs are tombs that you can walk into. They have lots of different designs on the stones. After that, we went to Carrowmore megalithic cemetery. We walked around, before heading to Sligo Friary. We took a tour of the grounds at Sligo Friary, which was fun. Then, we went to Parke’s Castle. I can’t say much for it, since I stayed in the car, but the outside looks cool. Soon after, we went to Drumcliff. Drumcliff is a small stone church. W. B. Yeats was buried there. From there, we went to Creevykeel Court Tomb. Creevykeel Court Tomb is a stone circle with a Dolmen in the center. You can crawl into the Dolmen’s entrance, which was neat. Unfortunately, we had to go to our hotel afterwards.
