Ireland August, 2017

I haven't posted in a couple years or more, but the wife and I spent a week in Ireland last month and I thought it might be a good time to start posting again. We flew into Dublin, and drove south and west through Blarney, Kerry, Dingle, Galway and back to Dublin. Here are a few quick shots:

Lunch Break


And this is all for now because I haven't dealt with PhotoBucket for quite sometime and didn't realize what a slow piece of crap it's become. I'm going to try to upload to something else and try reposting more. Stay tuned.

Cead mile failte!

Your itinerary brought back beautiful memories of Ireland -- we were there
in 2016 and followed a virtually identical route. And I'm eager to see more
of your lovely photographs: good luck with the new program...

Best regards,

Merryline McKenna

Thank you for posting these. The Favorite part of my trip was the Inishowen Peninsula Amazing wild country and beautiful towns.

Also the southern city of Cobh which was where many of the Irish left from.
