This is the best Irish joke ever!!!!!!! Driving along the coast of Ireland we came across one of those tourist signs signaling a castle up ahead. Given how much we've enjoyed all the castles we've visited over the last few weeks, we thought we'd stop and take a look.

Check out the photo. The Irish certainly have the last laugh with this one. In case you're not sure which part of the photo is supposedly the castle, look at the two small crumbling walls in the left of the photo.

The thing that really put us both in fits of laughter though were the two gentlemen who also stopped to take photos of the 'castle'. In thick accents and with emphatic gestures of disgust, they kept exclaiming "You call that a castle?"

We didn't stop laughing for quite some time...

Today we came across something that actually resembled a castle, although you can imagine our cynicism in deciding whether or not to stop and take a look.
