Once again, it is the 12th of the month. And that means contributing to Chad Darnell's 12 of 12 blog child. Check out Chad's website to see what everyone else did today. For me, it is the last day of my HONEYMOON in Ireland. Sad to leave tomorrow but we've had a great time for the week we were here, despite being delayed 3 days from the ash cloud. Today was spent driving from Dingle, County Kerry to Cong, County Mayo. We are staying in Ashford Castle for our last night here. All the pictures are from there or Cong Village. Enjoy!
