Updated Route Map →
We’re back in Dublin for the night to catch our plane back home in the morning. I’ve updated our route map so you can see our entire tour. Check it out here. Alana and I will try to upload a bunch of pictures tonight. Knowing Alana though, I’m sure the entire picture collection will be on Facebook within about 48 hours…

Connemara and Kylemore Abbey
Sorry for the lack of pictures on the previous post, and on this post. The internet here for some reason doesn’t want to let us upload anything, so we’ll do a make-up couple of posts with what we’ve missed as soon as we can get a more stable connection! Now, on to our trip!: We woke up this morning at our bed and breakfast where we ate breakfast, and then we were picked up by...

Dingle and The Cliffs of Moher
Today saw the most driving out of all of our days here in Ireland. We woke up at 7:30, ate our breakfast, and packed up to leave Killarney. We decided that we were going to do another ring called the Dingle Ring. We were told it was easier to drive than the ring of Kerry and was more scenic. Since Alana drove the Ring of Kerry, Matt agreed to do the the ring around the Dingle peninsula. As it...

Update about the blog
So Josh told me that people couldn’t post comments on this blog. That kind of defeated the purpose for this whole thing. So I’ve spent about an hour trying to get the comments feature to work and I think I finally got it. I know I know… I’m a nerd. I’m in Ireland and I’m working on getting a blog going. Anyway… Alana and I are checked in to our hotel. We...

We made it to our hotel in Ireland
After a loooong delay at the Phildelphia Airport due to mechanical problems with the plane, we made it to Ireland! Customs was a breeze, picking up our bags took a bit of time, and then walking out to the curb and not remembering to look right before you look left before crossing the street was weird! Then we had to figure out how to transfer buses to get closest to our hotel…we probably got...

Our New Travel Blog
I just created this new travel blog while sitting in the airport waiting for our plane to Dublin. Alana and I will post pictures and stories along the way in here. I’m pretty new to Tumblr. Hopefully this is a good medium to share this. All of my posts in here should automatically be shared on Facebook. Dublin here we come :)
