Monday Escapes

If you are a little tired of all of the Royal Wedding coverage, I want to take you somewhere besides England but so as to not shock your senses there are still castles here:

Castles in the rolling green hills...

Castle ruins...


Castles on lakes...


Vibrant cities on the water...


More rolling green hills as expected...


Rainy city centers...


And the last give away clue: beer served with the trademark four leaf clover at this country's most famous brewery...

It's Ireland!

Have a great week!

    Yes! Ireland! England's often overlooked, ugly (not ugly at all actually(, little sister. The best part about Ireland? The people!

    And yes, I am finally Royal Wedding'd out too. When will it end? :)
