Kylemore Abbey Tour and Connemara Region

We traveled through the Connemara Region which retains its regional heritage and only Irish is spoken.  There are several areas like this in Ireland and the landscape of lakes, mountains and bogs is pure Ireland.

Our destination was the former mansion of Mitchell Henry and is now the home of the Benedictine nuns and is known as Kylemore Abbey.  It was a very interesting place with much still in place in the house.  I saw a Henry Family Tree and the last entry was 2008!
