Lighthouses off the South West Coast of Ireland

It's been a busy few days and i haven't taken many photos, we are blessed with really good weather at the moment and I should be making time to wander off with the camera but i'm in lazy mode.
Himself is just home from a sailing trip on his friend's "Moody", three sailors off on a booze cruise down West. They had a ball staying in beautiful bays and inlets along the way Baltimore, Schull, Cape Clear, Castletownsend and Courtmacsherry being the main stop overs.
.
Last year myself and Clare went with them, the weather was beautiful, thank God, or I wouldn't have been there. I would seriously have jumped ship if there was any sign of choppy seas. As it was I was a nervous wreck going ashore in the dingy but the thought of solid ground and a pint of cider made the dingy trip worth while. There were several of those trips along the way. One of the nicest places we stayed in was Cape Clear Island.

I collected a lot of Yarrow on the Island and had it tied in bunches in my cabin drying. Yarrow tea is very good for colds and sore throats in the winter. Rory, the Captain, scared the be jaysus out of me when we were passing Baltimore later and the customs boat was about checking boats, for drugs i suppose. He had me convinced i was going to be taken off the boat and arrested for drying strange looking weed in my cabin. I got away with it that time but i wasn't taken on the trip this year, not sure if it had anything to do with that episode. I wasn't complaining though and happily waved the boys off.

These are some of the images i took last year of the lighthouses along the South West Coast.
