Just thought I'd post from Ireland!!!
We made the flight over and arrived in Dublin, everything went fine until I hit downtown. Driving on the left and with very narrow roads stessed me out big time. Mom almost had a heart attack but she did help me through the rough spots and gave me great encouragement. As soon as we cleared the city it was so much better. The open roads and country pace is my style. I slept so good when we hit the B&B in Wicklow. Mom though I had died because I never moved that night.
We're in Kilkenny on Wed. and we're headed to tour the Kilkenny castle tomorrow and see the design district, lots of artist in Kilkenny.
Friday we might head to the Rock of Cashel ruins and move south to Waterford.
Food:
Grand hotel Pub last night, chowders and potatos - great. Mom loved her seafood chowder.
This morning we had a traditional Irish breakfast that included black pudding - I was afraid to ask - tasted like burnt sausage. Ceral and what we call country ham. -great.
Late dinner tonight - pizza @ a local place really good.
Love to all and I'll try to check in again.
-Me
ps. Mom is try to talk with a Irish accent - it's hilarious, she promises me that she won't do it in public. Hee, hee.
