Looking down at the beach
More cliff views
We then drove 10 mins down to Loch Ard Gorge, which really was my favourite part of the day.
On Loch Ard Gorge - named after the clipper wrecked here in 1878
Gorge from above
On the two survivors of the shipwreck - a young man and a young lady. Unfortunately there wasn't a Hollywood Ending, about which the driver filled us in. They didn't fall in love etc
Open stalactites. The cave eroded away, or something.
Going down to the beach
