It’s sad to say, but this was my last day in Ireland. Our flights were just around noon. I still had yet to eat a full Irish breakfast. Not going to lie, but I quite enjoy them. If I was up early enough, I could make my way over to the cafe and get myself one…and maybe a scone for the plane ride home. I had only one connection after all. To… Read More
Another full day in Dublin and more adventures await. Our day started with a tour of the Guinness Storehouse with our new friends Enrique and Pepe. We were running a little behind, but we caught up with them eventually. Anne and I have been on a lot of brewery tours, so we moved quickly through the first part that tells you how beer is made. Then we needed some food on a… Read More
It’s our first full day in Dublin. Lots of adventures await us in this fun city. Some of the amazing-ness of the day was getting to sleep in, kind of. Our first “event” of the day was a visit to Trinity College. We were going to check out the Book of Kells and more importantly, the Old Library. That was really the only thing we had planned for the day. Which meant… Read More
Guess what day it is? We’re more than halfway through our trip. How is it just flying by so fast. It’s, yet again, another travel day. It was the briefest visits to Munich, but filled with so much fun. One day, we’ll have to come back and see more of Munich. Like every other travel day thus far, we had time for breakfast. We got breakfast at the Cafe Zimt, just down… Read More
Our schedule is a bit hectic this trip. I say this because…it’s yet another travel day for us. Today is a big one as it involves taking the train across the country and hopping on another train to another country. With our bit of time in the morning, we checked out the Claddaugh Museum (the place where it all started) and the Aran Sweater Market (because one must buy a wool something… Read More
Hello Galway! It’s Cliffs of Moher day. My last trip here (back in May) was amazing. It was sunny (bordering on hot…it’s was hot) and the Cliffs were splendid. Today was not destined to provide such nice weather. We were traveling to the Cliffs via the Galway Tour Company. But first, breakfast at my favorite cafe in Galway, the Jungle Cafe (it’s cash only, and conveniently close to the bus station). The… Read More
It’s yet another travel day for us. We’re heading to Galway…yes back to good ole Ireland…and the other side of the country. We’re going all the way west via two trains (with a transfer in Dublin…and two different train stations). Also, did you know it’s Taco Tuesday…we must get tacos…or something of the Mexican cuisine variety. We had some time before catching our train out of Belfast. The day started with another… Read More
This begins a new series and I’m about a whole vacation behind so…just deal with it. The vacation before this will be uploaded at some point. Celtic Oktoberfest is this years annual holiday that I take with my best friend…and we were headed back to Europe. Can you guess where by name alone? That’s right, we were going to Ireland (some place I’ve been, but she hasn’t) and Germany, specifically Munich (new… Read More
