My husband and I went to Ireland in October last year and I loved it. We hired a car and drove around the south.

We didn’t see the Cliffs of Moher, but that just gives me an excuse to go back :)

Lifecruiser: Yes, you did the right thing, rented a car, that’s the best way! We’ve done that in Scotland and that was better. There is always some excuse to go back, travelling is so fun :-)

I wanted to go to Ireland, too! But my fiance will get only five days off:////
Anyway the post is great - I agree the guiness is divine. I’ve got a friend there and he claims that the most “Irish” part of the country is western Ireland.

Lifecruiser: Tough. hope you will go there some day though. Aha, maybe we missed that part of Ireland, but we were in the western part some of the days :-)

I didn`t have time to see all the pictures yet, but did enjoy seeing the ones I have. Now seeing the Horses would have been one of the highlights for me. I am a real Horse lover. I miss the old days when we would go horseback riding for hours. After I broke off the tailbone on my spine, I had to stop riding both horses and motorcycles. In my home I have a large collection of Horse items . My sister told her friend that her sister has a collection that shows a great tribute to horses.
I would also have loved seeing the castle and other old style buildings.
You write nice reviews of the trips you take.

Lifecruiser: Glad you enjoyed them, Dot. Well, it is a lot of pictures and this is only the best of them. We’ve sorted out hundreds of pictures that didn’t come out well… Phew.
Horses really are amazing animals, so beautiful and powerful! I love them too, but just like you I can’t ride any longer because of my back problems. I cheated a little when we were in Paraguay, but their saddles were very comfortable with soft sheep skins.

Ha, it didn’t surprise me the Irish rooted for the Swedes instead of the English - they never were really matey, were they.

Don’t worry about the post. It shows just as well how you enjoyed yourselves and that’s what makes us happy.

Haven’t checked out the pics yet, but will do so forthwith.

Welcome back!

Lifecruiser: Thanks, Napfisk. We’re back just to prepair our next trip to Fårö :-) A little bit stressing, since we have some birthdays (not our owns) and a wedding gift to prepair. Now that’s all done and now it’s almost time to begin to pack our suitcases. Phew. But we know how relaxed we’re going to be after that, just enjoying ourselves :-)

I think this post was absolutely fabulous as written.
Great pictures. The cliffs are so high. And I really liked the sheep. Someone must have just sheared them..
Glad you had a good vacation..

Lifecruiser: Thank you H&B2, it was nice of you to say that, but I would have liked to have more time to write it more properly :-) The framers sheep dogs had just drived them to the three there and the dog were so very lively, almost to eager to work, not following order perfectly sometimes because it wanted to run.
