Odds and Ends from Sunday
Just few odds and ends. I forgot to say that we saw some excitement in Galway. There was some serious crime just off Eyre Square and we got to see CSI-Galway in action. OK. There was not really any action. But the place was roped off, tented and lots ...
Off Course
We planned to go through the Sally Gap on our way to Glendalough, but obviously missed the exit. We found ourselves in Wicklow where we saw a nice golf course right on the ocean. We also grabbed lunch ...
Another Sunny Beautiful day!
It's another beautiful day again! Around 6pm, we walked along the Brey Head. Later we watched a movie called Seven Pounds in the evening. Summary from IMDB: 'Ben' Thomas (Will Smith) is making a 911 call to report a suicide - his. Next, we see Ben ...

Rolling with the Punches

Just Keep Swimming.
Gentle readers, I have been reunited with the rest of the Raffels, and it's grand! Even though they were VERY jet lagged, we had a great first day together. I went to class, because I am a good student, and then we drove down to Bray and visited the Sea ...

Dublin to Glendalough
July 16, 2010 Dublin, Republic of Ireland Slept pretty good last night. Right before dropping off to sleep I heard thunder, so I looked outside and it was pouring. Got up at 6:00 and went down to breakfast. We are back to runny eggs again, so I had ham ...
Free Day
I'm not sure how it's possible, but the weather was even better today than it was for Glendalough. I couldn't resist. I figure February 29th is like a bonus day. I don't really need to get that much done, right? I took the bus to one of the sights on my ...

Driving Day One
And no we drive. And get lost. I get simple directions to get on the N11 and they are garbled. Go to the second set of lights and turn left. Well the 2nd set of lights are wrong. Did the woman mean 1st set of lights? Who knows? We took a ...
Wicklow County
... did a quick drive through town. It was getting crowded with the after work rush. So we turned around and headed north to Wicklow. A zip through town there on off we were again. The coast is really pretty through this area. And after some turns and turns ...
The Old School House
I spent about two and a half weeks in Moyne, Ireland, County Wicklow. A town, if you can even call it that, of about 14 people-15 including me :). It is a very small place and is surrounded by farmland. In Moyne there is an Old School House, that was ...

Today sucked serious ass.
49.4 km I have now discovered my own personal hell. They're called the #$*@& Wicklow Mountains. Today I seriously wondered what the heck I had gotten myself into. See, here's where my issue with directions came into play. Nope, didn't get lost. But ...

Bray
... Bray was the rock beach. Yes, I said ROCK beach. That is, the beach is made of smooth stones and not much sand. Like they really need that much of a beach in Ireland. It stays cool enough for the most part. Besides, the water is rather cool all year ...
Dublin and Dead Monks
... who make it the second most visited site in the Republic of Ireland. There are two lakes nestled between mountains in the Wicklow chain, and the lakes are fed by some streams that grade and fall here and there in noisy splashes. The place is ...
