On Saturday 15th May the rain was pouring down in Dublin as 6 members set out for Emo Court but luckily it had all abated by the time we arrived, even the sun decided to greet us later on our walk.
It was so peaceful and the birdsong was so clearly audible amid the wealth of beautiful trees. We enjoyed a leisurely walk around the lake and after some refreshments, we set forth to the Rock of Dunamase. A very impressive defensive stronghold dating from the early Hiberno-Norman period.
