Hari 16
Bishop's View
22 Juli 2023, Irlandia Utara ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
A super cool guy back in the long time ago liked a beautiful young woman. It took like 3 days for him to visit her because of the distance, traveling over water and mountains. So, being from a wealthy family like many bishop's were, he built the first bridge in Derry. He proceeded to build a road to her. We stopped at Bishop's View, and while I don't recall the significance, I assume this was where he might have started to regret his life choices.
Anywho...he ends up building her a huge house AND a LIBRARY on the coast. It's not at this stop. It's at Ballintoy, which is still very far away,which is why I assume he is regretting his choice .
Also on my way up (no one else wanted to go), a lady was walking down and said "I was told the view is beautiful " and I laughed and said apparently not today.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong Yes, again I said no to walk up 😒 It was pretty from my view. Loved the story of the guy who loved women and attempted to please them all. 3 day travel to visit one of them was quite a commitment. PS - I'm sure Cory can build you a very nice library out near the shop!

Derry City Wall
22 Juli 2023, Irlandia Utara ⋅ ☁️ 59 °F
Mom and I got up and walked the Derry Wall. Pretty cool. It's about a mile around, and served the purpose of protecting the city in the 1600's. It served the purpose of keeping the Catholics out in the 1900's.Baca selengkapnya

Bishop's Gate Hotel
22 Juli 2023, Irlandia Utara ⋅ ☁️ 59 °F
A cute apartment right in the heart of Derry! I think we all agree that 2 nights would have been ideal.
Fun fact: The hotel used to be a "Gentleman's Club" and Red, our driver, used to go swing on the door as a kid and the bouncer guy would bop them upside the head. When the hotel bought the crumbling building, they kept the revolving door!Baca selengkapnya

Pyke n' Pommes
21 Juli 2023, Irlandia Utara ⋅ 🌧 59 °F
Our driver, Deirdre, recommended this restaurant, and we all agree that it was one of the best meals!
We each had a burger and fries. The burgers were Waygu beef, and the fries were nice and crispy.
It was a short, 10 minute walk from our hotel. However, Derry is built on a hill. The walk back was a bit more challenging.
We wanted to stop at a cute pub on the way back, but it was too crowded. Dang it!Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong OMG ~ this burger was amazing. Had mine with cheese, bacon and jalapeños, delicious! Oh, and a beer😃

Donegal Castle
21 Juli 2023, Irlandia ⋅ 🌧 59 °F
We stopped in Donegal City in the torrential downpour. It was cute to see all the people huddled under awnings. Silly.
We stopped at a pub where we were the only Americans. It smelled of dirty rags, and they used 2 colors of balls on the pool table. Yellow and red. Not even numbered. One of the workers was in lowrise sweatpants and a crop top. I thought she was a bum. But no, she worked there.
After the drink, we went over to Donegal Castle, an OPW site.
This castle was so cool! One of our favorites!!
On our way back to the carpark, we ran into a music store so I could get a gift for someone. That someone is my brother, who took my 15 year old out on his motorcycle, even though myself and Cory have expressly forbade him to do so. The gift is for his daughter. It's an Irish tin whistle and a book for her to learn how to play all the tunes.
The rain was fun. We laughed about how much it was raining. Laughed and laughed.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong It was pouring and pouring but not too cold. The castle was amazing. I enjoyed it much more that the Dublin castle. They didn't cram it full of old crap. You really got a good feeling of what it would have been like. The pub was quirky for sure but as usual the beers were amazing 🙃 while walking down the streets you really had to watch for huge umbrellas that people had. Funny, a rain coat and hood was fine.

Glencar Waterfall
21 Juli 2023, Irlandia ⋅ 🌧 57 °F
It is so cute how proud Ireland is of their tiny waterfalls.
We, well myself, enjoyed a very quick stroll to this waterfall in the pouring rain.
Then we went to the tea shop for a sandwich. It was raining even harder when we were done. I can imagine how fecking gorgeous this area is in the sun! Or even in just overcast skies.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong Yeah, I nanny sissy poo posed this waterfall walk. The part I did complete was pretty. Sara was very disappointed in us for not completing the walk. Rainy and cold today just couldn't 😒

Knock Shrine
21 Juli 2023, Irlandia ⋅ ☁️ 59 °F
We stopped at Knock Shrine, which is really an important site to Catholics. I'll tell ye a story:
A long time ago, 15 farmers saw an image of Mother Mary and a lamb, and something else...oh! angels!...on a wall. Some priests came and interviewed these randos and confirmed it must have happened. A Shrine was built.
Catholics would make pilgrimages each year to see this Shrine. Then, in the 70's, the Pope came.
The monument that was built claims the visit from the Pope was the second most important thing to happen to the Irish. The first...the coming of St. Patrick in the early 600's. So, as you can see, we had to be on our best behavior here.
I even dipped my savage finger in the Holy water before I did the sign of the cross.
I have lived to tell this tale. So, maybe this is a place of miracles?Baca selengkapnya

We got to see some of the areas where The Quiet Man was filmed! Such a cute town. I love the quote on the plaque. One of the pictures shows the fishing pole from where the priest was fishing when the big fight broke out.
We also drove the grounds of Ashford Castle. Oh my! I wish we could have stayed there. But at $2500 per room, per night....not possible.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong Nope, no need to stay there. All of our stay locations have been unique. I would have felt under dressed at the castle. The Quiet man dedications are neat. I've got the movie in my que to watch again.
