Dublin and the Wicklow Mountains

Col had a long weekend, last weekend, which we wanted to kick off quietly at the local pub for a few pints. As you can guess, a couple of pints turned into loads of pints and before we knew it we were hopping from pub to pub with a growing crew and ended up inviting ourselves to a local birthday party. Still not too sure how we ended up there but we seemed welcome and it was def. a very funny experience including Elvis tunes and Karaoke.

The following day, Col and I headed off to Dublin (listening to Pure Pacha in the little hire car- thank you Mark & Rusty!). It was a beautiful sunny day and the Guinness Brewery was calling us. Funnily enough the Guinness at the brewery was the worst one we ever tasted, but the view from the top of the brewery was superb and worth the wait and the shitty brew.
On Sunday we caught up with Kylie, Aram and Andy at Glandalough in the Wicklow Mountains. We had a pub meal at the 'Meeting of the Waters' and then spent the night in Wicklow itself which is on the East Coast below Dublin.


Next week we are off to Hamburg to spend a couple of days with my family before driving from there down to Austria (Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis) to go skiing with my brother and nephew. Stay tuned for the next pics from the slopes. Let's hope we will have some snow! Ciao for now. xox
