Connemara Stories - early spring in Curra Forest, Co Galway

This year we had a very long winter, spring was late and the trees were bare and naked forever.  

 This is a compilation of videos and images straight from Connemara and its forests. Enjoy

Moycullen at Dawn

Recently I started a serious exercising routine very early in the morning since the gorgeous weather so calls for it, and I had this fabulous opportunity to walk Moycullen in peace and quiet long before anyone wakes up.

I was so impressed by the loveliness of the place that I had to compose a short blog post with a few lovely photos to prove what I am talking about.

I don't know what is your favourite time of the day but believe me there is nothing better than waking up at the crack of dawn. Everything looks prettier, more colourful, sharper, the air is so clean and crisp, the light breeze frisky and cool to the touch. You need that when the temperature rises above the mid 20s during the day.

So, have a quick walk with me through Moycullen at dawn
