Ireland, 2018

Nice month traveling the Island. Music, views, food, drink and the company of Lynn for a month straight, just us.

DIL Helen's Aunt Kitty. She's a Nun that lives north of Dublin. Helped us out with some logistics.
 Our rental car. Lynn scored big....smallest car available (thank goodness, small came in real handy at times) and stick shift. $10 a day. Great MPG.





 Devil's Causeway








 Turf fire and basket.





 Turf cutting



Normal width roads


Place where I got sized and waistcoat came from. Only thing I didn't get to see/do is the sheep the wool came from but was suggested that could be arranged as well.




















Helen's nieces.














Lake in the shape of a pour of Guinness.

 Glendalough

















 One of my random bike trips into the country




 Kilkenny. Fire broke out the morning we left.






 Cliffs of Moher.



 Random bay sunset
