The Skelligs Islands And Star Wars In Ireland

** ** ** ** SKELLIGS GO STAR WARS ** ** ** **

A sequence for the new Star Wars VII movie, which will be released in 2015, is being filmed on the Skelligs in the coming days. As a result, Skellig Michael will not be open to the public for a number of days. A crew of around 80 film people will create some magic while there. If the upsurge of New Zealand tourism is anything to go by, due to the 'Lord Of The Rings' Trilogy, we may be very fortunate with the arrival of Star Wars to The Skelligs, in the coming years.

I viewed the Skelligs from the shore but loved the view of the bay. A beautiful area, narrow roads and dodged wild goats, what fun.

We stopped a local to ask directions to a place where we could view from the shore. The highway he put us on ended IN the Atlantic Ocean. We thought that was pretty funny.

I wonder what the monks would have thought of Darth Vader!

I must be out of it. I didn't even know it was green lighted until Harrison had ended up in the hospital.
