Even seeing them with about half their peak water flow, they are so impressive -and we had them almost to ourselves - in our two hours walking the trails we only met 4 other couples.
However we also met two young men who accompanied us for part of our walk - one Zambian and one Zimbabwean who was delighted to display his knowledge of Ireland and its history and politics and demonstrate his Gaelic vocabulary. On learning that Linda was Scottish he was then keen to ask her opinions on the independence referendum - he was clearly a Yes voter!
Of course the bottom line was that they wanted to sell us some copper bangles - which they claimed to have made themselves - just like the numerous other hawkers we had passed on the road. A small price to pay for an amusing conversation.
