Exploring Ireland

When Josh and I first discussed moving to Ireland we both decided that it was important to not only see Europe, but we wanted to explore Ireland as well. Some of our best weekends were spent traveling the Emerald Isle. During our time here we have ventured; as far North as Belfast, the vast majority of West Cork, Killarney, Dublin, Wexford, Dingle, Galway, Claire, and Mizen Head in the South. Recently we took a quick get-away to Skibbereen. We found a mini-stonehenge, took a walk around Lough Hyne, and checked out Heir Island.

We also took a trip to Kilkenny for the weekend. We visited the castle, an Abbey in ruins, and Josh enjoyed a whiskey tasting at the infamous Dylan's.

As our time in Ireland comes to a close, we realize how much we are going to miss touring around Ireland, there really isn't a place more beautiful and untouched then here.
