In Honor of St. Patrick's Day

(image from www.sciencecontrol.com)

I thought that some pics from my trip to Ireland would be appropriate for today's post since it's St. Patrick's Day :) I went with my then-boyfriend, now husband, Peter, and three other friends in May 2008. We kind of traveled a loop around the country - staying in Dublin, Killarney, and Galway and making day trips from those towns. We had such a fun time! Ireland really is as beautiful as the photos show, and the people are extremely friendly and welcoming. I would go back again in a heartbeat! Many thanks to my friend JW for the photos; his camera is much better than mine and he is a much better photographer :)
