Not the Best Kiss I’ve Had, But Pretty Great Regardless

And not that I need help with the gift of gab, but I got a booster when I kissed the Blarney Stone.

I had the privilege when we visited Blarney Castle in County Cork, which was built about 600 years ago.

Blarney Castle from below.

Blarney Castle was one of the busiest sites we visited so there was a big line, but folks were quite orderly about it.

I was obsessed with those deep, wonderful windows.

And all that texture!

And green! Moss or mold, I don’t care. It was beautiful.

See the guy in the middle crouching down? He’s preparing to kiss the Blarney Stone. A guide helps you lie on your back, tip your head back, then stretch out to kiss the stone that’s in the battlements. Upside down. Then you’re snatched up and sent to the exit line. Bam!

Two people obviously inspired by all the stone kissing, and one fascinating tree.

Not Blarney Castle, just a gorgeous structure you can see from the top.
