Dingle Peninsula....do Heather a favor and email Tom about how impressed you are with his panoramic shot! :)

Arriving in County Cork

Scenes to come....

Outside of Kinsale

Ring of Beara -- no, we didn't just drop a picture of Heather into a scenic shot!

The key to driving in Ireland is to not get too close to these stone walls!

Tom practicing being a tourist with a camera around his neck at all times.

Heather singing "Sweet Caroline" karaoke-style after one...or two... too many pints

Cliffs of Moher

when you drop by, ask to see Tom's other pictures - they're unbelievable!

Hmmm...Tom with a camera....again

The Burren - ask us about running into the owner of Davis Square's Burren in town that night!

Arriving at Ashford Castle

If only our parlor looked like this...

 

The really posh dining room...

The castle's "backyard"

After dinner in the Dungeon Bar, many Pimms and lemonades later...

Another ooooooffffffff......

Tom made friends with a stray dog on the beach in Spiddal. Our puppy, Maddie, almost had an Irish sister!

On the deck of a very cool bar in Athlone overlooking the River Shannon.

...recovering from pre-mentioned hangover

Temple Bar, Dublin -- yes, they do serve Smirnoff Ice on draft

Christ Church, Dublin

Christ Church, again.

A sign you're not in Boston, Toto -- Viking Splash Tours instead of Duck Tours

They're a bit more cautious and require all passengers to wear life vests while in the water - hmmmmm......

Ah....Guinness!

Enough said.

Enjoying a pint in the Gravity Bar overlooking Dublin

When in Dublin, drink black gold!

If you can play video clips, you'll get a kick out of this.
Apparently our camera has a video feature that Heather knew nothing about and by accident turned on!

If only the camera had been kept on a few seconds longer, you would have seen Heather's face,
probably upside-down,
and heard words, not to be heard by children, in reference to the G--- D---- camera that wasn't working!

 

And if you visit our "photos" page, you will find that Heather has since learned how to use this feature!
