Ireland Trip - Avoca

Avoca, Ireland is the location of some of the filming of a BBC show called Ballykissangel.    Jolene is a big fan so we had to check out all the locations featured in the show.  The first is this the Avoca Community Church that was built in 1862.

Next stop was the Avoca Handweavers.

The mill stream was pretty.



It takes several hours to set up a machine to start weaving.  The guy here is threading the material from the racks seen in the next photo.










Next we took a walk downtown past the Guarda (police) station




The grocery store.


Another focal point of the TV show.
