Inishmore: Dun Aengus Cliffs


It wasn't planned this way but our central purpose in visiting Inishmore turned out to be walking there and back to the Dun Aengus Cliffs, where a Hardy-type view of the smallness of man on the Earth could definitely be felt:


The tourists from North Carolina below seemed to enjoy peering down to the rocks and sea, probably some 250-300 feet below (no way you would've got me doing this, I've never liked heights):


But in the sprinkling rain and light mist, people seemed to genuinely enjoy themselves:



In the end, we got so caught up with looking at the cliffs that we didn't really have a proper look at the prehistoric Dun Aengus Fort.



It seemed so small in contrast to the cliffs:
