Thirteen Memories of Ireland
1. Sitting in the Temple Bar in Dublin, sharing a pint with my guy, and listening to U2…
2. Kissing the Blarney Stone and exploring the enchanted gardens of the Rock Close at Blarney Castle…
3. Making up silly road trip limericks on our drive through Limerick…
4. Strolling down the Dublin streets, seeing all the different brightly colored front doors…
5. Talking to all the cute little old men with thick Irish accents…
6. The excitement of the protest fires near our “hostile” hostel in Cork… (Sounds almost Lemony Snicketesque!)
7. Drinking a pint in the Gravity Bar in the Guinness Factory/Museum, overlooking all of Dublin.
8. Chasing a rainbow all the way to the water’s edge, and finding the “Eye” of Ireland…
9. Having to play “Farmer Girl” in a bush in the middle of a park in Dublin… (Actually, that is not a GOOD memory!)
10. Going to visit the James Joyce Museum a couple of days after Bloomsday…
11. Seeing the Book of Kells and the oldest Irish harp, and then sneaking a picture in the Trinity College Library…
12. Sitting on a cliff watching the sun set on Ireland…
13. And finally, in honor of tomorrow, visiting the stunning St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Dublin…
(I had to host today's TT through Flickr because Blogger sucks!!!)
Leave me a comment and I'll make up a list, even check it twice!

Wow, Ireland! ...that's where my husband and I are dreaming of going for our honeymoon...of course, we have already been married for 3 years, but nevertheless, he says one day he's taking me to Ireland and we'll even stay in a castle a few nights!
...my list is up:)
Jealous that you have even been to Ireland. How cool that must have been!
Happy Thursday!
Mine are up.

Look at you Miss Thing! Great List, and I loved your banner. Wow girlie, your momma would be proud.
The Green Island is truly amazing. You'd probably love Scotland too - I did! I also agree that Blogger is bloated. I can hardly log the blog once a week, and uploading pictures...........*sigh*
You have a great blog, though. I enjoyed reading it.
