We   saw our first castles today having past beyond the Pale, and a ruined   church from the 15th century.  We had started toward Tullamore only to   decide to go toward a town called Clara as it was more on the way to   Athlone.  This took us to Rhode where Patrick had his first   &#8220;pint&#8221; (sorry I haven&#8217;t had one yet) we went from there toward the   hills, stopping to get out of the rain, at a farm where Patrick\u00ac\u2020decided\u00ac\u2020to rest in the hay.<br \/>\nWe&#8217;ve come to two more conclusion about the Irish:  One they love   horns.  They use them in anger, to say thanks, or just to say &#8220;hi&#8221;.    Needless to say this becomes quite confusing.<br \/>\nTwo, the Irish deny the existence of leashes. We&#8217;ve now been chased my   a total of four dogs, the funniest being the latest.  We were   inquiring about the availability of a bed and breakfast and couldn&#8217;t   get a hold of anyone, neither at the door nor the phone so Patrick\u00ac\u2020decided\u00ac\u2020to try around back.  Moments later I see him running full   bore from the back of the house soon followed by a Jack Russell\u00ac\u2020Terrier\u00ac\u2020fully confident in its duty to keep him at bay. Ironically it   was this act which garnered the attention of the inn keep.<br \/>\nOur of the picture of the day is a Patrick asleep on the hay<\/p>\n<p><!--Mime Type of File is image\/jpeg --><\/p>\n<div class=\"postie-image-div\"><img class=\"postie-image\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"http:\/\/asyouwill.com\/weblog\/wp-photos\/20080611-104203-1.jpg\" alt=\"photo.jpg\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As promised a few of wonderful things we saw on our journey today.
