ireland

So matt and I decided to travel to the emerald isle before the weather got too bad.
There were 2 places that we really wanted to see in Ireland "Giants Causeway" and "Carik a reed". As public transport to these places was going to be mighty difficult, we went the route of the package tour. 11 days sharing a bus with a bunch of backpackers and a crazy driver.



Doing things this way meant that we saw alot of stuff that we normally wouldn't have. Matt and I now have the gift of the gab as we kissed the Blarney stone. and I tried my very first (and last Guiness)





We also saw some really cool stuff like a star fort






Of course we visted Giants causway which really was phenomenal. The rocks are just amazing !
And its quite close the carik-a- reed a very old rope bridge. Its actually quite scarry to be on the bridge. Especially when they are threatening to close it 'cos the weather is so bad. Apparently they used to hand fishing nets from the bridge to catch the fish as they swam past.

















We also went for a horse and carrige ride through the ring of kerry. And even though we tried our hardest we just couln't find any Leprecauns.
