Aran Islands 28-03-09

After having stayed overnight in Galway, we took the morning ferry to the Aran Islands. This time it was sunny. I have to say I was excited to go there. This time we didn't take bikes, but started to walk.






We took a wrong turn and then, in order to get back on track, we started wall climbing. Not so funny, especially when these walls are only made of loose stones and when some horses watch you. We felt a little under pressure, but it was worth the wait. We found our way to the Lighthouse which is also on the highest spot of the island. Because it is closed during the summer months, we couldn't have our lunch break there, so we returned back to the main road and, because the others were kind of exhausted, we returned back to town.









Suprisingly enough, we found a lot of chicken, cows and cats, but no sheeps.



















While the others returned to the hostel to chill, I walked in the other direction to watch the sunset.
