Landed in Dublin 3pm Tuesday, having had only a 2hr stop over in Abu Dhabi. Collect car and made our way to our friends in Athboy.

Day 4 cont
7 september 2017, Irland ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
After checking out the jail and castle, we checked Lough Derg at a little place called Dromineer. We drove through a cute little village called Ballycommon, and we thought it would be a great place for Hil, Jim and the kids to live. Turns out it's where they are looking and where the kids go to school.
Finished a great day out with dinner at the Abbey Bar.Läs mer

Loughcrew
11 september 2017, Irland ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Had yummy crepes and coffee at the garden centre, got the key and off we went looking for the Cairns and portal tombs.
Walked up to mountain to the Cairns (with the sheep). Unlocked the gates to an ancient tomb (just us and a couple of locals). Inside was quite small, though we were able to stand. The wall still had remnants of ancient drawings. Em was trying to predict the weather 😂, she was as good at that as she was walking back down the hill!
At 8 pm we watched Caitlin win her Gaelic football semi final. Freezing but fun!Läs mer
