Very sad now were related to Americans because of the British

Die Geschichte rund um diese Hungerjahre ist so traurig. Und gerade das Schicksal der kleinen Celia so anrührend.

A beautiful famine ship memorial on the coast of Salthill. There are benches and an awesome place for picnic. Peaceful and serene views 💯
