Inishowen Peninsula, Malin Head

And so it came to pass that we drove Ireland's northernmost peninsula and its northern-most point, Malin Head...
Still on the Wild Atlantic Way, but now adding the "100" spirally thing, which
we construed to be the Inishowen Peninsula loop road

Some of it inland, some of it by the water

















A lot of it up and down

Stopping for lunch at Pollan Bay



Not going in the water




And finally arriving at Malin Head, Ireland's northern-most point

Announcing to American, RAF, and German planes, this is
Ireland, neutral, please do not bomb

View from the top



Old Lloyds' semaphore tower


Now working our way down the east side of the peninsula...a stone circle not
visited...the Bocan Stone Circle...although advertised in the tourist literature,
there was no clear path to it, no signage, and it was surrounded by long-horned
bovines that did not look like cows to me
