      @Jett129 we actually fly out of Cork to Bristol on Saturday. Don’t think we’ll have time to do the distillery though. When you mentioned it I almost rearranged our plans to make it happen. That’s how much I’m digging the Redbreast. But we’re having too much fun in these little coastal villages to leave any sooner than we have to. Thank god for the Duty Free @americanathreads

      In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

        @Alex oh man! It’s not uncommon to get half a pint glass full for a pour in some of the dive bars around my house.

          @flannel-slut ha! I’ll probably have to use a putty knife to scrap these 822s off my legs by the end of this trip!
          @SKT today we went to the only island I’ve ever been to where jeans and flannels were proper June attire. Almost a bizzaro world inverse…not gonna lie…I loved it!!

            @Daniel-San ha! Man, this is not even a far off exaggeration at this point. And we’re only 5 days in on this trip!

            @AdamC thanks!! This place is so damn beautiful and the people are the coolest.

              @Mizmazzle Just as a point of reference the Red Breast Cask Strength,and the PX are both currently selling for $93 in my neck of the woods. This way when you’re perusing the Duty Free shops,you can gauge the relative discount. I feel like Red Breast,is also pretty widely available in the states. I try to bring back bottles that I can’t get or the price is too good to pass up.

                              Today officially marks the end of our Ireland leg. I have been completely blown away by the people, the landscape and the food. We didn’t cover too much area in this beautiful country so only option is to come back some day!

                              Little Aran Island (Inis Oirr)

                              Found my hand knit Aran sweater on the island. It’s very cool…err…warm. Yes very warm!!

                              In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                                          Just to echo what everyone else has said,thanks so much for sharing and bringing us along with you. Every year when we discuss potential travel plans Ireland inevitably comes up. You’ve definitely made me think it needs to happen,and that we’d love it. Always wanted one of those sweaters.
