Irish Road Trip!

Watch out everyone…we have a car!

For the next three weeks we’ll be taking to the roads of the Republic of Ireland and checking it all out. While John has been here before, it’s my first time and I’m already in love with the friendly people and pubs on every corner. While I didn’t grow up with pubs, living in Australia for years got me used to them and I’ve really missed being able to ‘pop in for a pint’ while we were in South America (except for in Colombia, of course).

River Liffey bridge Dublin

Summer still means cool temperatures and rain for Ireland. This is a bridge over the River Liffey in Dublin.

Not to mention getting to speak English and have a full understanding of what is going on around me for the first time in four months.


We’ll be visiting the following places and making lots of stops along the way:

Galway

Dingle

Killarney

Cork

Kilkenny

Glendalough

Dublin for one last night

I’ll leave you with some photos from Dublin to get you as excited as we are!
