A bunch of Blarney!

Road tripping Ireland! 

We slept In a bit, went to breakfast and then took a road trip across Southern Ireland! 
2 hours to Cork Ireland to see the Blarney castle and the Blarney Stone.

These are some of our views. Enjoy.

Just a couple of asses hangin out at the local gas station. 


Which way do I go? 
Just a great adventure! 

So green and pretty everywhere you look!




 Blarney Castle



Climbing up to the Blarney Stone 


Views from top of the castle 






Blarney house was closed on weekends but got a great shot from top of the castle. 


I was the only one in our group who kissed the Blarney Stone!! Was a 30 minute wait. But worth it to me! 


What a rush! 
Head rush that is lol 

I did it! :)


Standing Under the Blarney Stone (it's in the top in the middle)

We were greeted with this View upon returning to the cottage in Naas. 

Time to relax with some Guiness :) 






Good night!

Luck of the Irish


Welcome to beautiful Dublin/Naas Ireland 


We all had a very long trip over the big pond. We flew from Colombus OH and Nashville TN respectively and met in NYC. 30 hours later... We are exhausted and crabby.  
We watched movies and tried to nap a little. They gave us a pillow, blanket and toothbrush/toothpaste, headphones,  dinner and breakfast

Got the rental car and made our way to the cottage.

Learning to drive on the opposite side of the road has proven to be an Adventure ! It took all 4 of us to navigate to help Ms Donna drive. Didn't hit too much lol 

We are staying in a charming country cottage on a active sheep farm in Naas. It is so pretty and temps are cool. We are glad we brought long pants! :) 


We showered and took a couple hour nap and then ventured out to find some food. Fish n chips it is!

Tim and I's room

Stephanies and Donnas room 

To be continued tomorrow! :)

17 days!

We have just 17 days until we fly over the Big pond! WOW!

We all are so very excited for this amazing journey!!We all have worked hard for this trip.
On July 29th all 4 of us will meet up for our Journey in New York, New York!

Tim and I are completely packed and ready except a few basic items that we will stuff in last minute because when we get back to Tennessee we will have very little time before we fly since I extended a extra week in Frazee Minnesota. We are driving Mz. Dazy (our new to us RV) from Minnesota to Tennessee next week and it will take an extra day.

Thank for being here and traveling with us vicariously thru my blog and photos. :)

The Next blog post will be Live from our First Stop in Dublin Ireland
