The Poulnabrone Dolmen, Burren, Ireland Hello everyone!!! *collective hug*

I couldn't resist posting a first entry tonight... and adding some photos... I took so many and I tried to make a fun selection for you (*waves @ meathiel LOL*)... I will write more and post more photos. We had an amazing time and there will be lots to share both here and also with my dear coven sisters & brother. I hope you'll enjoy these first ones... And also: I will try to get back on track with LJ as quickly as possible, but I've no idea what work will be like (hahah, awful, yes, but HOW awful?), I'll do my best. :)


-- this is the Poulnabrone Dolmen, Burren area, Ireland
 
Me and my Owl Me and my Owl

We got introduced to this little lovely during our falconry lesson by the Newgrange Falconry. She's amazing! And her feathers are so soft! More information to come. :)
A Beauty in the Flowers A Beauty in the Flowers

... taken at the Burren Perfumery garden... in the Burren. :)
Mum and her new best Friend Mum and her new best Friend

do I need to say more? LOL. She just loves cuddling plants.
Faces in the Sky Faces in the Sky

... and one evening, they just looked down... I don't know what they were searching for...
Do you see the faces? It was quite something to view!!!
A Happy Kitty... A Happy Kitty...

... at the Burren Perfumery... :D
A Path To The Past... A Path To The Past...

... which it really was for me, but that'll be something to share on a more personal level.
This is a re-building of a Crannog, a dwelling in a lake, only accessable via this bridge.
Me hiding... Me hiding...

... or trying to. ;)
And then She divided... And then She divided...

... the plants. LOL. At the Burren Perfumery Gardesn.
This be MY lamp! This be MY lamp!

near Tara... let's just say the birds there are fun. :)
A Wild Ride... A Wild Ride...

we really had a WAY wild ride to the smalles of the Aran Islands, Inishere. The waters got even wilder than here, which was when I had to stop taking photos and simply held on so I wouldn't be tossed around the boat. Let's just say WOW. I can't stand rollercoasters, but THIS was quite something. :D
Casting Shadows... Casting Shadows...

... at the Burren area... I love this area. I could spend weeks there and still find new places and things to see. You just want to sit down there and simply spend time there...
And yes, this shadow is me. :)
I'll get you! I'll get you!

This would be mum chasing Ed around the car. He was teasing her endlessly, so she started chasing him around and around the car... LOL
Sun Sun

I love how the Sun creates the most amazing pictures like this... including the rainbow-arrow in this one. :)

Hugs!
Marta - Naurwen

Welcome back ... or not???

Aww ... photos! ;-)

How did you manage to get a pic of Poulnabrone without people? *g*

LOVE your icon. I definitely need a Burren icon. :D

yeah... I wish I could have simply stayed.

LOTS of photos... to come ;)

how did I manage... well, by going there in the late afternoon and waiting for the last bus-load to leave. :D we spent a long time there, walking on the stoney ground etc. :)
mind you by now you can't get any closer to the dolmen anymore than this photo sort of shows. limited access only.

how about *and something extra*?
and in addition... hmh... let's say another ATC... hmh... some kind of fantasy-theme? I'm thinking Vic.Frances or something like that?
Or a Harry Potter ATC? Or both? LOL

LOL, great. "And something extra" is great! =D

Oh, please BOTH!!! ^.^

Can I have about 3-4 weeks for those, though? I am not sure how busy I will be as I will probably be starting private classes with another man soon (it's not sure yet, but I prefer to be on the safe side).

From: [identity profile] naurwen.livejournal.com
