Wow - imagine being here !!!
Yesterday we drove from Dublin to Dunfanaghy which is in northern Donegal. It was a long drive but we stopped on the way at the Belleek pottery centre and saw some of the work there and some of the historic pieces on display. We also watched a video on how they make this pottery. Thanks to Laura for telling me about Belleek - I hadn't known about it before. We also stopped at a place ...
Nutty roads & BUSY day but we DID it!
... ummm - what was a turning and what was a driveway caused us to go back and forth a few times down the same 2 km of road "then turn right at the small green mailbox" FINALLY success!!

It was nice to be able to shut the door on mum’s snoring :P Mum had taken a Benadryl that night as she’d been feeling a little blah with a runny nose…little did I know how this would effect her! ...
Day 9 - Northern Ireland Coast
... of stone that look so orderly. It was freezing and we were being blown away so we retreated to the car and headed on.

We arrived late at night and thought we’d try and see if they had a place available at a B&B in Bogside (the Catholic area at the heart of troubles during many of the riots).
