Day 13: BelfastBreakfast at hotel (buffet style Irish breakfast & continental breakfast). Black pudding is better than white pudding and not bad except really salty. We also tried some Irish cheeses including Brie. Brie was a bit rough. Michelle put it as “There are 4 aspects: 1, the smell is terrible don’t smell it. 2, the first taste is completely […]
Day 12: Giants Causeway/Dunluce/BallygallyWe woke up and packed up our cars and headed towards giants causeway. It was pouring rain but we were also on a hunt for a Cafe before we got there. We tried stopping at dollys Cafe but it was closed so we continued on. There were several closed roads which pushed us away from the Coastal […]
Day 11: GlenarmWe checked out of our room and hit the road. We stopped at a supersav for diesel and a coffee. I didn’t know how to work the machine so I ended up with a hot chocolate. We continued on and went to try and see Lough Neale but we had issues with navigation and decided to just say […]
Day 10: Killysbeg/DonegalWe woke up a little early to gather all our clothes and get them packed up and then we packed the car, got take away mochas,, and hit the road for Slieve Leauge. It was almost a 4 hour drive but worth the trip. It was stunning and turned out to be a beautiful clear day. We hiked […]
Day 9: GalwayWe got a later start but when we did, we grabbed a mocha from the coffee bar at the hotel. Walked to Galway City Museum (surprisingly interesting). We were not hopeful at first but as we continued it got more interesting. We then walked toward Eyre Shops and we found Aran sweater Market and caught a couple sweaters […]
Day 8: GalwayWe woke up and drive to the Ross Castle to get a picture of it even though it wasn’t open yet. We didn’t want to wait for it to open since we wanted to drive the Dingle Peninsula and see the Cliffs of Mohr today. We took a couple laps up and down Ross Road to find Nieve […]
Day 7: Killarney- Ring of KerryWe woke up around 730 and got dressed and hit the road. We wanted to get an early start to beat any possible crowds but we got on the road and realized that we didn’t have to worry about crowds because it was pouring rain. We stopped at Torc Waterfall and had it all to […]
Day 6: Killarney Packed up, got a mocha for take away and had a short drive to Blarney Castle & Gardens. A person can easily spend all day exploring the castle and the grounds. It’s really neat you are able to explore the full castle, including the famous climb to the top to kiss the blarney stone. We spent a […]
We packed up, said bye to our little hut and made our way to Rock of Cashel Castle. Unfortunately, they had sections closed off due to restorations but because they had ongoing restorations they didn’t charge any admission fees today. We walked around and took some great pictures. There are signs but if you are like me, you may get […]
