Wicklow

Posted on Sunday, June 27th, 2004

Dave!I'm off to the Seattle-side of the state. Since I have to take a bunch of crap with me, I'll be driving my car instead of riding my motorcycle. I hope I remember how.

Before I forget (again)... this is for Jill:

The reason the little photos in my sidebar for "Hard Rock Moment" and "Travel Picto-Gram" change every time you visit is because I wrote a little script to randomly display them. If you "reload" the page a few times, the photo you want to look at should appear again. The image you are referring to is from Glendalough, which is an incredibly beautiful area south of Dublin in Ireland. You're right, one day I should add them to my gallery but, until then, here are a few showing the Celtic crosses you wanted to see...

Wicklow Ireland

Wicklow Ireland

Normally, I don't care for organized tours because I prefer to explore places on my own. But my hotel (the historic Shelbourne Hotel in St. Stephen's Green, Dublin) gave the "Wild Wicklow Motor Coach Tours" their highest recommendation and, after taking it, I would have to agree. If you are in Dublin and want to see a bit of Ireland's amazing countryside, this is the way to do it.

    I should mention that The Shelbourne hotel also comes highly recommended if you are looking for lodging in Dublin. It’s a rather famous place, as the constitution for the Free State of Ireland was drafted in room #112 in 1922 (and I believe is featured in the movie for those events: Michael Collins, starring Liam Neeson). It is quite expensive, however, but deservedly so.
