Winging It West

Once again we have been exploring our little county ! This time Lauren and I plus our fello bloggers Nicola and Donna travelled west to Donegal Town to see Donegal castle. It was a totally spontaneous we just wanted to take advantage of the sunny weather ( its raining here now so thank god we did). It is about 20mins away and is located right in the centre of the town so it was quite easy to get too. It is usually two euro to get into but it was free the day we visited, just luck I guess ? 
We took quite a few photos of our little day so enjoy!

Overall it was a really good day, Donegal Town is actually a really nice town to visit on days like this. They have loads of those little nic-nac shops which we love looking around. We each came home with our own little something from the day. It was such an inexpensive day out, we literally just wandered the town, even sitting down by the water for a while. We would definitely recommend for anyone visiting to spend a day, just looking around having an overall really chilled day out.

Here is a few more silly photos just for fun !
