The Emerald Isle


Two weeks in Ireland. Absolutely gorgeous.

I realize this is more pictures than any reasonable person who didn't go on the trip would be interested in seeing.

So I've tried to break things down into chunks by region. Click on the locations below to see thumbnail images from that area (to see the full-sized version [~90k], click the thumbnail).
Alternately, you can get an overview of the trip by peeking at the highlights below.

Dublin | Northern Ireland | the Burren | Cliffs of Mohr | Ring of Kerry | Blarney Castle | last leg
