To see how well I'd recovered from my recent illness I decided to drive to the other side of the country and visit Tatjana in Sligo. I'm not sure how wise that was, but it turned out to be a great day.

We went to visit a promontory fort and its associated monuments. Id' seen this site from the sea as we sailed to Inishmore last June.

The monument itself is very well preserved and very easy to access. However, for me the highlight of the day was sitting and eating lunch with a swarm of sand martins flying around us! How awesome is that!?
