Had a much slower start to the day. Took the small back roads cross-country to an area where there were several Neolithic sites. Stopped at a fort but decided it was too expensive to go in so continued on to a Neolithic Tomb which was free. it was here we bumped into Richard Bateman - so had a quick botanical chat with him. We then went onto Caron Turlough where we sat by the lake to have our lunch. We decided that Ireland doesn't have very good signposts and how we made it to the national park was a bit lucky. Mullagh Mor was very dramatic and we had a good time looking at the plants at its foot. Another very hot day and Jane returned with som very burnt ears.
