Westport and Kylemore Abbey

It was a bright start as we stopped in Roundstone on route to university town of Westport. The tourist attraction of Kylemore Benedictine Monastery was nearby, run by nuns who certainly know how to rip off the the tourist, of whom there were many. The Kylemore pass was very scenic.

As it was Sunday we treated ourselves to a nice bar lunch, at Leenaun, including  oysters, lobster bisque, prawns in a basket and roast pork. After a stroll round the nice twon of Westport on the river we went on to Castlebar for the night and walked along the loch to see the sunset.
