Ireland: 6/4/11 - 6/10/11
We were not sure what to expect of Ireland, but we were very excited. Our trip in Italy had been fabulous and we had left in a high after spending a week in Positano. Our Ireland itinerary was slightly ambitious since we were planning on covering four cities and 1200 KM in four days before stopping in Dublin for two days. The best way to summarize our Ireland experience is that we drank and drove! No worries these were not enjoyed simultaneously or in close proximity of each other.
Our foursome was energized and as strong as ever. Italy was our travel training ground and we passed with flying colors. From here on there was nothing that would stop us from conquering the Irish pastures, pubs, and tiny roads. We arrived in Dublin and immediately hit the road in our Peugeot 3008 towards Galway. Our first sights of the Irish landscape are everything you would imagine and more. The green pastures adorned the countryside as far as the eye could see and if you didn’t know better or you were an alien you would think that only sheep and cows inhabit this place. We loved our time there and especially the Guinness Brewery!
