Our next stop was Bunratty Castle in - yes - Bunratty. It is a 15th century castle, the most complete and authentic castle in Ireland (so they claim). It is full of marvelous 15th and 16th Century hand carved furnishings and tapestries. The stairs were treacherous and too numerous to count. (Mom - this was not for you!). We risked our lives and went to the parapet and enjoyed vistas of the surrounding area - as the sun came out and warmed the air. The dining table is 25 feet long, and everywhere you look there is something unique, priceless, or intriguing.

On the same property as the castle is the Bunratty Folk Park with over 30 buildings in a ‘living’ village (real wood in real fireplaces) and rural setting (real donkeys, pigs, highland cattle, and more).
We enjoyed poking around farmhouses, village shops and recreated streets. Each house is furnished as it would have appeared at that time according to their social standing, from the poorest one roomed dwelling to Bunratty House a beautiful example of a Georgian residence built 1804 home of the Studdarts, the last family to occupy Bunratty Castle. It was sunny, and then it rained, then sunny again. If you ‘don’t like the weather in Ireland, don’t worry - it changes every 15 minutes. What a wonderful afternoon. My feet are sore, but eyes have seen so much, and we both need a bathroom - so on to our bed and breakfast for the night - just 4 minutes away.

like ten years ago i got to go to ireland with the study abroad club at my college and our first plane left at like 5 in the morning (meaning we had to be there at 3:30 or so) so i was like. well i’m not going to make that if i try to wake up in time for it, so i just stayed up the entire night so i’d be there on time
but i’d also not slept since the night before that
i thought to myself ‘sure whatever i’ll just sleep on the plane’
i didn’t sleep on the plane. i didn’t even sleep during the 6-hour layover we had in new york city. by the time we left for ireland i’d been awake for. idek how many hours but it was Rough
anyway the one thing i remember very vividly from the whole experience was snapping awake in an airport chair hearing the phrase ‘a peanut in a candy’s dream’ echoing around my head thinking emoji i still have no idea what that was about

#OTD in 1318 – Richard de Clare, Lord of Thomond, a descendant of Strongbow, is killed while commanding his forces at the Battle of Dysert O’Dea.
The Normans were very unsuccessful in trying to establish themselves in Clare. They had but one small section in Bunratty guarded by a strong Castle of the same name. In 1318 Richard DeClare occupied the Castle of Bunratty. In May of that year he was joined by some Irish traitors and they proceeded with a very strong Army of English and Irish to attack Conor O’Dea of Dysert O’Dea and establish…
