Today was a long and adventurous day. It was up and at’em at the crack of dawn, a filling Irish breakfast and goodbye to our Killarney host for the trip. We were off to the Dingle Peninsula and….well…we weren’t too sure where else…honestly. We wanted to see Dingle, Bunratty and the Cliffs of Moher, but…

Day Two In Dublin…Where to Even Begin?!?!?!
Wow, where to even begin. Well, today we pretty much proved once again that we can conquer any city in about one day no matter how far widespread the attractions or tired we are from jet lag. If it was in Dublin…today…we saw it!!! The kids did amazing. They slept the whole plane ride over,…
