We had a Deluxe room with a balcony. They put balloons in mom's room for her birthday. Our rooms were right next to eachother. In Ireland they have the room power set up to work only when they room key is in a slot by the door. Also, no outlets in the bathroom. And no top sheets. The bed was very comfy. I loved the pillows. The very worst thing is Cory's snoring. I'm adding all these photos as I lie here awake due to his snoring. Yes, I have ear plugs. It's going to be a long 17 more nights.En savoir plus

Lunch and 1st Guinness. The food was good. Guinness...is ok. Cory LOVED the chibatta bread. We have decided that we cam share meals. Very large portions!
The restaurant was ok. They were playing remixes of 80's and 90's songs though.
$33 Euro for 2 beers and 2 meals. Kinda spendy.En savoir plus

As a history lover, this place was amazing. So much to read and learn. I would definitely go back. We also got to here a student choir perform. Man. So spiritual and a lovely memory.
This church is the oldest in Dublin. It costs them 1.5 million Euro a year to keep it operational.En savoir plus

Stopped for a drink. I looked at this restaurant so many times when planning. Ultimately I booked The Church for tomorrow. So we stopped in to get a look since we won't be eating here.
A lot of history here. And very busy. Reasonable prices for beer. I had an excellent IPA.En savoir plus

The food was very good. I wish we had done this another night. Cory and I are so exhausted. Awake over 30 hours! But man! It was such a fabulous show. All of the trad music was fun. Learning about true Irish instruments. And watching a Riverdancer perform multiple times! 5 stars.En savoir plus

Book of Kells

This stop was well worth it. We had tickets for 9:30. Of course, we were first in line. Even with only 25% of the books left, this library made my heart happy. Walking in you could SMELL the old books. They had videos of the process of removing, cleaning, cataloging and storing the books. The way the categories and organization of the books went was so easy. Better than the dewy decimal system. This was a fabulous stop!

Also, I was a bit flustered because I could not get my phone's mobile global pass to work.En savoir plus

A fun stop for an afternoon snack. We all shared 1 plate of fish & chips. It's a cute, old pub! Fun fact that no alcohol can be served till 12:30pm on Sundays.
We actually went here 2 times. The first was 10:30. Mom was hungry. But they only serve breakfast till around noon. Zero other restaurants were open. So we came back at noon.
I defaced property and put up a forest grove sticker.En savoir plus

VoyageurThis made Cory SO happy! It was a fun ride around Dublin. I am very impressed on how clean the streets are. No homeless encampment's, a few quietly asking for money. I'm interested on what and how Dublin helps their less fortunate.

This is a very popular area. But not our favorite. It was a street full of well known retailers.
But we really enjoyed the live street music.
I tried to put a coin in a guys case, it jumped out. I had to grab it and put it back in. The musician smiled and waved. It was awkward and embarrassing.En savoir plus

We went here for dinner. I wanted to walk....but was talked into a cab.
We arrived 30 minutes early, so ordered some drinks and sat outside. I don't know how people eat outside here. There was such a sewer smell present.
Anyway, we were seated at 6. Ate a delicious dinner! Listened to trad music, tried to watch the Irish Dancers, but it didn't work out. Everyone's food was so good! And the bill was 1/2 of what we expected, so that was great too.En savoir plus

VoyageurThis was one of my favorite places. Dinner was delicious. The reserved seating that Sara had for us really topped off the evening. I loved the music, the building was just beautiful.

Fun facts:
Smoking is still happening here. So much so, that ashtrays are on every outdoor table.
The green mushy stuff they serve is called "mushy peas." Just say no.
Driving here is crazier than Jamaica or Belize.
Taxis are everywhere. We used the Free Now app, which is similar to Uber.
The ranch tastes weird. Get the Garlic Mayo instead.
The portions are huge! I don't know how the Irish are so skinny.
The Irish have the best sense of humor.
Most Irish do not work at the touristy places here.
We walked 20,237 steps with mom.En savoir plus

We left Dublin this morning for Kilkenny. Taking a train to Enniscorthy where we hired a driver to take us to Wexford for the Famine Ship, Waterford for The Viking Triangle, then to our hotel for the next 2 nights - The Butler House.
We had a complete tourist experience at the station getting our tickets. There was the nicest man, Frantih, who assisted us, then visited with us while waited for the train. His Irish humor was awesome. He has MS and shared a lot about his life. So enjoyable!
A 2 hour train ride to our next journey. Beautiful views of the coast and the mountains. Kind of feel like we are in Tillamook.En savoir plus

VoyageurThis was a fun experience. I was laughed at when I said I felt like we were at the Hogwarts train station 😆 The train was fun, we reserved seats facing each other with a table for easy conversation between the 3 of us. The views along the way were great. The only thing that would have made this better is a bloody mary. The Butler house was one of my favorite stay locations. I had a view of the garden and the castle. The bed was perfect, the towel warmer topped it off. Great find Sara!

This was such a moving experience. The famine tore family and cultures apart in Ireland. The rich British landlords actually paid to send these families to Canada and America so that the could bring in cows. Many, many died during the voyages. I couldn't imagine.
Vera met us for lunch at the Cafe. We had pizza and a cider.
I did not realize how many Irish helped establish America. Back when we valued hard work over the victim mentality. Walt Disney, Henry Ford...both 1st generation Irish immigrants. Andrew Jackson also. Kennedy'ss....etc.En savoir plus

VoyageurThey did a great job of replicating the ship. Very sad conditions. I can't imagine being put into these conditions in order to save my family and myself knowing that your chances of survival were very small. It saddens me that even today humans have to put themselves in danger to find a better life. Be thankful each day for all the wonderful things we have in our lives ❤

The Viking Triangle

We grabbed the last tour of the Viking Triangle for the day. And while we waited for it to start, we walked through a Manor house. Lot and lots of history! I loved Waterford and could stay a few days here.
I can't type everything we learned, but I'll share this fun fact:
The doors were so high into the homes due to the clothing fashion of the times. The dresses the ladies wore were VERY wide. And the men wore top hats. Imagine building a home so you could fit your outfit in through the door.
Also, we walked on the oldest road in Ireland, Bailey's New Road.En savoir plus
