Quiet Man Bridge

Krishan at the Quiet Man Bridge. The bridge is featured in the 1950's film "The Quiet Man" starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. I'm going to have to add this movie to our netflix queue.

Cows, Horses and Sheep...Oh My!

An Exceptional View

We were lucky to see the Cliffs of Moher on a clear day.

Back to Reality

We had a grand time in Ireland with Claire and Krishan. We visited Stephanie and Seamus and managed to see a lot! From day 1 David was in the hunt for Shepherd’s Pie and asked for it at every pub. He persisted and finally found it on the menu in Galway at the Quays (a really interesting pub whose entire interior was imported from a medieval church - everything from the stained glass, the Gothic arches, the carved wood, and even the pews). Anyhow we enjoyed the trip, the company, the pubs, the gorgeous views and of course the Guinness. I have to say that people are not exaggerating when they say Ireland is a spectacular, gorgeous country and yet we only got a little taste of the Emerald Isle. Too bad vacations go by way too quickly.
