We drove to a town just outside of Dublin today. We went to see Trim Castle in Trim. We also risked life and limb to go to a monestary because Ardith had never seen one. It was mostly rocks because it was not occupied. Then, for really the first time, we got lost. The GPS did not allow for a highway that was closed. We had to find our way with a map. WHAT??? I can't read a map. We made it anyway.
We decided to turn the rental car in early because we are 5 miles from the airport and we found out that it's better if we do not drive in Dublin. We ate dinner and thought we would pop out to the airport and get it turned in. We left at 8:00 p.m. We got back to the B&B at 10:30p.m. They are building a new terminal and everything was moved around. I now am very well versed with the ins and outs of the Dublin Airport now. I know three bus drivers by name and almost had one talked into jumping in with us and helping us find the turn in. Ardith is releaved to say the least. Dublin is tomorrow and we get to bed early because we catch a 6:40 a.m. plane to Heathrow. I'll try to post pictures tomorrow evening.
Cheerio(I'm not sure that's the spelling but we hear it alot here)

RoxAnn, I've enjoyed reading about your trip so much. I'm so happy you found the Rooney homestead, church, etc. Cindy
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a wonderful time. When I was stationed in Scotland in the 60's when someone said "cheerio" the reply was "cheeribye."
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a nice time and I am sure you are looking forward to your next country to invade.
