St Patrick's Day
2007-03-13 22:52:00
Nearly here! Only few days left to the most important holiday in Ireland - St Patrick 's Day. It all began only in the mid-1990s that the Irish government began a campaign to use Saint Patrick 's Day to showcase Ireland. Now on 17th March everyone is Irish. The biggest parade in Ireland will be held in Dublin. I promise to put up some photos on both blog and the website as soon as I recover from celebrating Paddy's Day and watching Italy - Ireland rugby game (probably Sunday ;-)) I just hope the weather will be nice.

Carlingford
2007-02-11 13:54:00
It's cold, cloudy and rainy - typical Irish winter, no snow, just rain, so I thought I'll add a page about Carl ingford to my website; Carlingford is a small medieval town in between Dublin and Belfast. It's nicely located on the footsteps of Mourne mountains and the shores of Carlingford lough. Town is dominated by the castle which rises above the lough and offers magnificent views to the north, south and east. If you are looking for relaxing break it's a place for you. You can stroll the medieval streets, walk the mountains or fish for the sea-trout, bass and other.

Blarney Castle
2006-11-08 16:22:00
Hi,We've just published a page on Blarney Cast le . We've paid a short visit to Blarney in mid 2005. To be honest the castle is a little bit pricey and the Stone of Eloquence is nothing more than a good marketing (we've kissed the stone just in case we're wrong!!! ;-)), but even though it is worth visit. Just a little warning - it gets really crowded in high season!!!
