He could have at least left the bus number in to help locate the area. However It's likely a "3". "5" or "9". And guessing it's a "3" as it is a bus from the Ringsend Garage.Quote:

First one looks out over the Poisoned Glen, taken from around halfway up Errigal.

Nearing the first bit of the peak, towards the end of the climb looking back down the hill.

The highest peak you can get to on Errigal. Looking towards Ranafast and Carrickfinn.

Happened to spot a common lizard on the way down the hill. They're probably a lot more commonly spotted than I give it credit for, but I don't recall seeing one in the wild before anyway.

Great photos. What hosting site do you all use to upload these? I have a few from various vacations etc that id like to share.
My photos are just from my phone and uploaded to Facebook!
I use an old Photobucket account that I've had for years. Signing up is pretty straightforward and it's free. You can just sign up with a Facebook account.Quote:

An old building in Vrlika, Croatia where my wifes extended family lives and we spend some time. You can see a couple of scars from fighting but it was the shutters that caught my eye.

These markets were all lined along the side of the road by Opuzen Trg and Ploce on the drive from Dubrovnik to Split - the colours are insane.

Olive Grove on the island of Lokrum. The scent was unbelievable.

So it's taken at a bus stop on Pearse St from the Pearse Sq side. There is a bus stop still there as it happens. And just through the window you can see a gabled roof peak and that building is still there on the West side of the resource centre.
The building on the left hand side is the St Andrew's Resource Centre.
That's too funny ;)Quote:
