Ireland ⋅
Hi guys, it's Rupal! This is my first blog post so let's see how this goes...
Right now we're on a bus to Galway which is in the west of Ireland to see the more scenic side of the country where we'll spend two days. We woke up at 5:30am this morning to pack our bags and walk to meet the bus whichRead more
Ireland ⋅ We didn't know what to expect from Galway, but read good things and knew that most of the best sightseeing was close by so we made it our home base for a few days during our West Ireland day trips. We were pleasantly surprised at how much we liked this city! A college town with a great pub scene inRead more
Bryan GrantThat must be why my brother went to visit for a few weeks and wound up staying for almost 3 years..
Ireland ⋅ We made it to Galway yesterday and headed out for a bus tour to Connemara which is off the beaten track full of untouched scenery, ruins and a castle! I'm glad we decided not to rent a car for this trip around Ireland because driving on the left hand side on rolling hills and narrow lanes would haveRead more

We've been off the grid for a day or two but there's a good reason why! When you're in the middle of the Atlantic on a remote island there isn't much of anything around including access to the internet.
On a cold rainy morning we left Galway and took a ferry to the Aran Islands which are off theRead more
Ireland ⋅ No words needed, enjoy these amazing pictures of the Cliffs of Moher! These pictures don't do justice to seeing the Cliffs in person. With perfect weather and no rain we got to spend an afternoon at Ireland's second most visited site after of course the Guinness factory.

We left for Dublin this afternoon after lunch with Kelley and Paul and a visit to the Queens University campus and Ulster Museum in Belfast. Beautiful downtown campus with lots of "kids" and no parking. We found a palm tree in Belfast!
Off to Venice in the morning.
Ireland ⋅ We reached our hotel by 11am, dropped off our bags and went out to see some of the sights of Dublin. First stop was City Hall then onto Dublin Castle where we booked a guided tour for mid-afternoon (which was very interesting). Then we walked to Christchurch Catheral which had a pop-up food villageRead more
Ireland ⋅
.... was very, very good. Sheridan Smith was Fannie Bryce and she was excellent.
It was a lovely evening as we strolled back into town along the river and then into The Norseman for a Guinness nightcap before retiring for the night.
Ireland ⋅ Fuelled on a full Irish breakfast, we visited St Patrick's Cathedral before taking a stroll around St Stephens Green then looking in the shops along Grafton St. After a slice of delicious cake at quirky Dolce Sicily, we took a guided tour in the Little Museum of Dublin then walked around theRead more
Ireland ⋅ Getting ready to take the Guinness Tour. We weren't sure if we were on the right train and this lovely lady, Sheila, helped us. She said she would take us all the way to Guinness if she wasn't meeting a friend! Everybody is so nice! Guinness horses!🐴 This is Molly 🤗

I was totally going to ask you about their accents & if you actually understood them. I have to read their lips at Irish pubs in the city! Very awesome!
You will come back speaking with your own accent 🤓 Happy to see you enjoying and experiencing different cultures!
Awesome! My brother lived in Galway for a couple years. Great place for sight seeing I hear.
Our favourite pub in Dublin is "My Bar". Our family still jokes about it - "It's my bar"; "No, it's my bar"; etc. Glad you're having a great trip. Hope you'll also visit Northern Ireland - quite a lot of history there as well.
This is bringing back memories of our trip to Ireland!! It was the best time! So glad you guys are enjoying your trip! - Roshni
