Hey all! We got back from Ireland on Monday night after a very long, but enjoyable trip filled with sheep, cows, green lush valleys, mountainous terrain, oceans, bays, beers and whiskeys a plenty and lots of extra mayonnaise that never really needed to be on that sandwich you wanted ( Read more... )

They wouldn't even let me get some whiskey!

Welcome back from the Land Down Under!

What exactly is it under? 50 million tons of Guinness and Mayo?

trisloth September 20 2006, 14:45:05 UTC

but no ice.

They use all the ice for their ciders.

YAY! Welcome back! We missed you!

Roosters are the shit.

cosmicserpent September 20 2006, 15:52:06 UTC

Those roosters in particular were awesome. Every time we'd get close, they'd come up to us like as to say "don't fuck with our bar."

I used to have a pet rooster as a kid named "Delicious." (No joke.) We had this really long driveway and whenever anyone would walk up it, the rooster would sprint up to the person and attack. My best friend was afraid to come over and would always carry a stick to beat the rooster off. It was pretty funny.

One time my mom was attacked by a rooster when she tried to take me to ballet class.

cosmicserpent September 20 2006, 15:52:31 UTC

Was she pecked to death?!

tinyspoon September 20 2006, 15:54:33 UTC

No. She managed to defend herself by whacking it with her purse.

Jef and I are thinking about Dublin for the honeymoon. :)

I can't wait to see the rest of your pictures!!

You know, I didn't really care for Dublin nearly as much as the smaller towns. It seemed like Dublin and Cork in particular, because they are so large and industrial were a little drab and depressing compared to the smaller towns. But it's quite possible I didn't give Dublin a good of a look as I should have.

luckylucy September 20 2006, 16:31:26 UTC

We don't plan on staying in one spot for too long. I'm sure we'll see more than just Dublin if that's where we end up. Where did you guys stay? Any good tips for while we're there?

cosmicserpent September 20 2006, 16:41:59 UTC

Another thing to note about Dublin is that it's easily the most expensive place to stay. Even the shitty hotels (like we had) are expensive. We stayed in B+B's for most of the trip. We went to Kilkenny, Cork (I'd avoid Cork), Kilarney (very touristy), Limerick (we didn't even see this town as we heard it was underwheming and it appeared to be so), Galway (my favorite and the best B+B we had and Trim (it was close to the airport!).
