If you are in Limerick a trip to the Flying Boat Museum in Foynes is a definite. It is a trip back to a time when air travel was impossibly glamorous.

Yes. This is a full size replica of a B314 Flying Boat, it has been recreated with amazing attention to detail, and you can go inside for a look around. I just couldn’t believe how much space passengers had!

Found our berth. We are ready to go. Each passenger had a bed on these flights.

Oh I wish….

The museum has some great travel posters and mementos from the golden age of aviation.

Then on  for a quick visit to King John’s Castle in Limerick City. I loved this castle.

Lots to see and do. Make sure to check out the photos of the restoration.
