On this day two years ago we visited the Hill of Tara, once the seat of the High Kings of Ireland. The little hills and ridges are the remains of ancient earthen structures, and it feels like the sort of place where you shouldn’t be allowed to tramp all over it… but you are. The 360 degree views of the surrounding Irish countryside are spectacular, even on a gray and windy late-December day like we had. We don’t often take bus tours (as evidenced by this post), but we did on this occasion and it was worth it for the color commentary of our fellow travelers alone. Maybe that’s a story for another day…
Great post 😃
I would be interested to hear the other bus tour story from this trip. I *really* need to get back to Ireland, if only to see more than just Dublin.
I’ll see what I can do. 🙂 Think I wrote at least part of it awhile back as part of some writing challenge but no idea if/where I saved it.
Love Dublin but agree… everyone just raves about their Irish road trips so I think that’ll need to happen at some point.
