This is a top pick! ... you?" I asked one lady as we walked across the airfield towards the hut that from this point shall be referred to as Shannon airport. 'Oh thanks deary! How kind!' How HEAVY? Goodness knows what mischief this tour had caused, but I could only imagine ...
Lift Off!
... flights, with some flexibility on dates. So on August 12th, 2010 our journey began. We said our goodbyes to family at Shannon airport before boarding the 7.30am flight to Heathrow. It was definitely sad to leave home, especially family and friends but any ...
Raining at Sunrise
... day I came in and it rained the day I left, but no other time in between. I left early in the morning to get to Shannon airport before the stated departure time. The roads were clear, they were just rising up for the morning. It was strange to be thinking ...
London to Shannon
We flew early morning from London to Shannon, Ireland. The flight was so cheap, like $20 bucks and what really struck me was how so many people seemed to just be commuting. Several had their golf clubs and no other luggage like it was just a day trip. ...
Day 9: Shannon and Flight Home
Today basically consisted of packing clothes, getting up early, driving to the air port and a 6. 5 hour flight to the States with a 3.5 hour drive home. It was a long day but worth it for another great trip to ...
Getting There
... only allowed one piece of hand luggage. I wasn't too happy about this but it did arrive in one piece once we arrived in Shannon. I picked up my hire car, a brand new Corsa, it's brilliant - I'm not going to enjoy getting back into ...
Leaving - again!
... first one as the rest would be classified as no-show ie all cancelled! Bit slow the morning after Kerry winning the All Ireland, had a `few` pints in Dublin after the game before getting back to Tralee late. Fair to say Sinead was getting a bit stressed ...
Wrapping things up before departure
... exert his supervisory skills!! ;) (he lost his reading specs so he was the supply guy for the project) Last night in Carrick on Shannon, I could not rally. I passed out at 8pm. Frank, he rallied and did a tour- nothing was going on. He was back by ...

Ireland
... and Ando. The hospitality was outstanding and I ate and drank so much that I had to be rolled out of the country. Ireland has clearly developed massively, even in the last 7 years since I've been there. There were three things I noticed: 1) Loads of ...
Crossing
Last time I crossed the Atlantic, it was very late at night in a military flight. Vast differences here - I might have peanuts this time instead of earplugs. Oh right. I forgot earplugs. Finding words. Sadness. Excitement. Bewilderment. Leaving ...
Belfast Touring and then driving to Shannon

When possible, please make an authorized U-turn
... cappucinos so we decided to stop and try to have some lunch. By far, it was the BEST meal we had in all of Ireland. Larry's adventures in strange meats did not extend to the goat burger that was offered; we all ate well and the scenery was ...
Sitting, hoping, waiting, wishing...
... our duo has become a trio, since Sandra (Bryan's little sis) will be heading off with us. Currently waiting in Shannon airport for our flight...should be in London before three...yay! Bye for now, Ali xoxo ...
Picking up another rental vehicle
... didn't take any pictures because this area is scenery filled. Actually, it would have been more advantageous had we flew into Shannon instead of Dublin. Ballinspittle was closer. Oh well, we still might have missed Dublin, and that would have been a ...
We're Home!
Touchdown here around 12.30pm, and thats the end of our travels for a long time! Thanks to all for your help along the way. ...
Landing!
We're here!!! Already, this country is great. Renting a car only took, like, five minutes or so. And people are helpful. A bonus was that Dirty Dancing was shown on the plane and Elisa was able to narrate the entire final third for Josh ...
Stranded in Shannon
So here we are stranded in above all places shannon. Suppose to be at my going away party back home now. Not the greatest start to our trip but we made the most of the situation by heading to the nearest nightclub and continuing drowning our sorrows with ...
sucks
what the hell kind of shit is it when you take a night bus to somewhere and when you arrive at the bus station, the station is closed??!!! It's closed, its raining, its cold, I've gotta piss, I'm tired, thirsty, hungry and I have to pay 35euro to get to ...
Homeward Bound
... us and we wouldn't have to go through Customs in Newark. Wow! What an experience we had those nine days. The trip home was exhausting, and we were glad to be home, but we'll always treasure our memories of Ireland. Happy Birthday to us! ...
Farewell, Ireland
... and made new friends along the way. I have got to see things that I never believed I would be able to see. Ireland is a wonderful country, with friendly people and a rich and interesting history. I fell in love with it! I am sad ...
