No need for driving to the next B&B just strolling through the historic center. The weather was the the best we ever had by now here in Ireland. After the fog was gone at about 9am we could see a clear blue sky [...]]]> http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/15/a-hot-summer-day-in-galway/feed/ 0 http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/14/the-crowds-of-moher/ http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/14/the-crowds-of-moher/#comments Sat, 14 Aug 2010 21:51:31 +0000 Michael Fladischer http://www.fladi.at/?p=2373 As we had this wonderful experience of watching the sunset at the Cliffs Of Moher yesterday, we decided to visit them again today first by boat and then by walking along the cliff side.

We went to Dingle … got screamed at by loads of little children during the boat trip to see the dolphin: “There he is!!!!” (while pointing at a bird swimming on the waves) Dingle is okay if you are going there [...]]]> http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/13/dingle-is-for-kids-or-why-the-dolphin-is-so-scared/feed/ 0 http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/12/visiting-kerry-or-how-to-avoid-blarney-house/ http://www.fladi.at/2010/08/12/visiting-kerry-or-how-to-avoid-blarney-house/#comments Thu, 12 Aug 2010 21:27:08 +0000 Michael Fladischer http://www.fladi.at/?p=2306 Just a note to yesterdays entry: The local dancing event we attended was lovely! We’ve never seen such a joyful public event anywhere else. Old and young were dancing alongside the lake (Lough). As must-see for everyone who’s coming to Cork.
