AE Travel Lens | Ireland 2012, Part One

What a lovely trip-so far. Love "traveling" with you like this.

Thanks for posting the photos. I would have loved to have joined this group as Ireland is my Grandmother's homeland.

Ali,
I SO would have gone on this adventure if I hadn't just visited Ireland last spring! A girlfriend and I rented a car and I drove over 900 miles on the left side of the road without incident (sometimes on really narrow roads!) We had a great time, and wish you all the best of adventures. Everyone in Ireland was SO friendly, and we were there in the spring just as the lambs were being born, and it was all I could do not to scoop up one of those lambs and smuggle it home in my luggage!
Happy travels, and glad to see you so happy these days :)

Love the pics so far! Would love to visit there one day :)

Big time jealous, Ireland is on the top of my to go to places :-)

Thanks for sharing. Love the photos. Keep them coming!

I envy you. WOuld love to go to Ireland. Have fun for me while you are there. Appreciate the pictures.

So jealous....and so happy you are having a good time. I so wish I was able to be with you and the other Bella Tuscany gals. Give big hugs to all, and keep the biggest one for YOU!

Green!! (envy) So happy you're having fun. Thanks for sharing!

You are making me homesick....I miss Ireland terribly. Thanks for the photo essay.

Looks like a great trip, hope to make it there (and Europe!) one day!

Love the pictures. The Cross is awesome! I was there over 24 years ago with my father, uncle, cousin, and grandparents. I often wish that I would of been into memory keeping as I am today. Thank you for sharing!

Ooh, you're making me want to go back again soon. We were just there in March and I was so so sick (pregnant + virus) so we didn't do as much as I would have liked. But the Avoca stores are awesome.

Thanks for sharing. Your photos bring back so many wonderful memories. Ireland is such a special place to visit. I may have to start a return to Ireland vacation fund after this. :) I can't wait to see where else you will be visiting!

Wow, those blankets are awesome colours! Looks like you guys are having a great trip so far! So wish I could have gone!

Thanks for sharing, Ali, love your blog, so inspiring!..

Waving to you from just across the water in England! I love Ireland - my red hair and green eyes proclaim some distant Irish ancestry! So glad you're having a good time - thanks for sharing your experience with us :)

I've been in Ireland 2 years ago, and I really loved this country, I felt kind of peaceful there (don't know how to explain that). Thanks for sharing your pictures (love the colors of the weaving mill - and oh! the Book of Kells... waow!). Have a nice trip.

So great to see the places I've been. No OSHA there so you can walk around the mill on tour. Great!

Thank you for sharing your travels with us. Bon voyage!
