Well, crumpets and tea for breakfast this morning! Hooray, we're in England. But to catch up we'll put up our pictures from Ireland. So on St Patrick's Day, thanks to John and Anne Fullerton (the classiest Irish people of them all) we got the chance to visit Giant's Causeway, Ireland's most famous natural phenomenon, which receives over 600,000 visitors every year and is simply amazing. We were just in awe.
The next stop of the day was Dunluce Castle, along the Northern Irish coast. Some serious breathtaking scenery and amazing history.
Then on the way home we had some great laughs as Bri and I tried to snap pictures of cool stuff out of the rainy windows as John yelled "Quick, Quick, take the picture!" That happened a lot the next two days.
So yesterday we drove up to Dundrum for a lovely visit with Anne's mum and brother where we were showered with lovely presents of the nicest knit and crochet work you ever did see.
Next stop would be Newcastle and some fantastic ice cream in the freezing cold rain. We laughed and had a grand time. We also visited Dundrum Castle via John's seaside dirt road awful shortcut (which was worth it because it saved us 10 miles), for an amazing view of the coast atop the highest tower.
Then to the local Chippy for Irish fish and chips, our first taste of all gorgeous things deep-fried.
Now we must send a massive thank you to John and Anne for taking us around to so many amazing places and for being so kind and awesome!
All in all Ireland is class.
great pictures! Glad you are having such an awesome, amazing experience!!
