Day 10:

There are tractors in Ireland and Scotland but not many John Deere in the route we took. Massey Ferguson and New Holland are the most numerous brands in the area we traveled over the 12 days.
Also in Ireland, the signs are in both Gaelic (Irish) and English. They still teach the Irish language in schools.
We toured the Glenveagh Castle and it has a very sad story to it. Some rich guy decided to buy the land and build a hunting lodge. He had 244 people evicted from their homes.

The castle, through the years, has been redesigned and remodeled and is beautiful on the inside. One of the owners and would weigh his guest when they arrived and then again before they left to see how much they enjoyed his hospitality.

From the gift shop.

The hot chocolate was delicious. Patsy has a pot of tea and some kind of chocolate. The small is milk. They had milk to their tea over here. I got apple pie and another scone with butter and jelly.
The table cleaners in the cafe.
