The mountains surrounding the valley were shrouded in fog and the little church sat silently on the island in the middle of the lake. Even in the middle of the pouring rain, the lake was smooth and there was such a sense of peacefulness and calm. It really is such a gorgeous spot and it reminded me strongly of maternal grandmother. Late in life, when she found it hard to walk, she loved to be driven to Gougane Barra where she would pray in the car.
