The High Council of Clan Donald Tour of 2008

to the lands of the McDonnells of Antrim in Northern Ireland was a resounding success!

We were extremely fortunate to have had the attendance

of all five Chiefs during this tour even though Lord Macdonald & Claire

could only be with us for a few days.

The absolute highlight of our Tour this year was the presence of

The Honorable Hector McDonnell

brother of the Earl of Antrim, noted artist, author, illustrator and historian,

to provide commentary, in his own amazing style, on the history of the sites we visited.

Once again, we owe a huge THANK YOU

to Rob McDonald Parker & Marion Parker and to Peggy Ruetz

for all the work they did to plan this wonderful Tour,

and to keep us all organized and "on track" while we were in Ireland,

sorting out details as we went along. 

On these pages we will be sharing a few photos of our adventures,

so check back often in the next few days as new photos are posted!
