Leath Cuinn (Conn's Half) and Leath Moga (Mug's half) are legendary ancient divisions of Ireland, respectively north and south of a line corresponding to the #EskerRiada running east–west from #DublinBay to #GalwayBay. The eponymous Conn and Mug were #ConnCétchathach (Conn of the Hundred Battles) and #ÉoganMór #MugNuadat (the Servant of Nuada), whose armies in 123 AD fought the battle of #MagLena (the Plain of Lena, in what is now #CountyOffaly between #Tullamore and #Durrow).

Auf der weiteren Fahrt sind wir vom #Shannon abgebogen, in den #Grand_Canal, der seit 1830 den Shannon auf 131 KM, über #Tullamore mit #Dublin verbindet. Dabei gibt es 36 #Staustufen mit tollen #handgemachten #Schleusen, die mit #Muskelkraft betreiben werden.
Da unser #Hausboot, wegen fehlender #Lizenz, den Kanal nicht befahren darf, war nach knapp 500 Metern, vor Schleuse Nr. 36 für uns Schluss. Wir legten an. Unser Platz für die Nacht liegt mitten in der #Natur vor einer alten Schleuse.
