Today we had lunch at the Roscommon Gaol, where my great-great-great-grandfather was condemned to death (see yesterday's blog entry). Luckily this sentence was commuted. When we visited this gaol in 1994 it was still obviously a gaol, but today it contains shops and restaurants.
Also went to Roscommon Castle, in ruins, and now a lovely public park complete with children's playground and adult exercise equipment.
Now back in Dublin, and tomorrow on the plane to Australia - this holiday was too short!
