I didn’t take many pictures on Day 4 in Ireland. That was the day of the football game! Remember, we went there for a football game! Because we took a train into Dublin and they wouldn’t all a camera into the game, I left the camera at home. But before we left for the game Andy and I went south of Dublin and hike a trail that lead us to the ruins of an old hunting lodge known as the Hell Fire Club.
I discovered this cool little relic because one of the ways I do research for a trip is just opening Google Maps and scrolling around looking at things in the area. Maybe the most scientific or best, but it has worked well for me in my travels. Doing this is how I discovered this little gem just south of Dublin which promised (but didn’t exactly deliver) an amazing view of Dublin. But it deliver some amazing views.
Here is the first collection of images of Day 4 in Ireland:
Ireland has a reputation for being “green”. I never really appreciated it because I always thought, “big deal” Iowa is green. But when you see the green in Ireland, it hits differently.
More pictures from Day 4 next Friday.
