Newgrange

Bit of a late start this morning as I slept until 8. Hotel breakfast was fabulous with baked beans, Irish sausage, eggs, rolls, and more! Took the shuttle back to the airport to get our rental car and then drove to Newgrange. Very nice BMW

Newgrange is one of quite a few passage tombs built in the Neolithic Era that are in the Boyne Valley

We were given a time slot for the buses that take you out to the Newgrange and Knowth mounds. We had time to tour the exhibits and grab a lunch in their very nice tearoom before the bus times.

Nice view of the Boyne as we walked out to the bus stop

Pictures from Knowth

And from Newgrange

Back at the Visitors Center we had worked up an appetite so refreshed ourselves with a small treat

Excellent day at Newgrange!
