I have got Selin visted us this weekend. She came from Paris to spend a weekend with us, before Guzelgoz junior arrives. The fist destination which had been chosen to entertaine her was Powerscourt Waterfall, co. Wicklow.

Powerscourt Waterfall (Irish: Eas Chúirt an Phaoraigh) is a waterfall near Enniskerry, County Wicklow, in Ireland, located in a valley surrounded by Djouce Mountain and the Great Sugar Loaf. At a height of 121 metres, it is the highest waterfall on the island. In August 1821, during the visit of King George IV to Ireland, Richard Wingfield, 5th Viscount Powerscourt decided to dam the waterfall, so that he could release a torrent while the two stood on the bridge below the falls. The king was unable to leave a banquet at Powerscourt House; however when the water was finally released, the bridge was washed away. Funny enough!

Сматываем удочки!:-)


Poulaphouca (Irish: Poll an Phúca, meaning The Devil's Hole) is a tiny village located in County Wicklow, Ireland, on the border with County Kildare. It is primarily known for its hydroelectric generating station and artificial lake, known as Poulaphouca Reservoir, Poulaphouca Lake, or Blessington Lake.

We went fishing & picnicing with our friends Elena, Stefano, Vincentio and Karolina.
