Ireland-0550-Here you can see the dead stalactite. The darker one is older and eventually the water supply was cut off and the new lighter colored one formed completely independent of the old one.

Ireland-0547a-I set off to find one that wan't quite as famous and so not roped off. Hopped a fence that said, DANGER, Beware of bull and passed these cool spine like neolithic stones. Bull is back by the farmhouse.
Ireland-0542-Sheep dogs in action. Training a sheep dog involves a lot of patience... and a lot of swearing.

Ireland-0544-It's on!
Ireland-0543-Those sheep are about to get herded!

Ireland-0551-Light trickling into the cave along the underground stream.
