We'll start off with some of my favorite scenic pictures and a few things that have made Ireland famous. First, georgous pastures!
Scenic views from every hill.
Old tombstones amidst fertile ground.
And fences of stone that separate the parcels of land.
Sheep are everywhere!
I couldn't resist getting a close up picture.
Even driving by on the highways was beautiful. Just look at that ivy draping over the bridge.
Speaking of driving, Ireland has the steering wheel on the right side, and you drive on the left side of the road. Completely opposite of the US. Shouldn't be too difficult, right?
Let's just say I'm glad we had insurance on the vehicle. Side swiping the left mirror is the most common car incidents for Americans in the UK. While Eric & I both had our share of hitting the curbs, Eric gets to claim the ultimate prize for the mirror incident.
At night, the Irish hit the pubs. Guiness is made in Dublin, and is the local favorite throughout the country. My preference was the lighter beers, though.
Just as our evenings ended with a pint of beer, the mornings always started with a great cappuccino, or in the little one's case, the best hot chocolate ever!
