Our next trip: IRELAND! Coming Soon.

In celebration of our 20 year wedding anniversary this year we are heading to IRELAND (plus LONDON). We talked about it at 10 years, and then again at 15 years, and decided (without much time to spare) that if we didn’t just go ahead and do it we would still be talking about it at 50 years.

We thought it would be nice for family and friends to be able to see daily updates during our trip, and our friend Amy was nice enough to help us get this website set up (Thanks Amy). Above you can see each place we’ll be stopping on our 18 day journey. The map is interactive: you can drag and zoom like any google map and click on markers for more information. The markers above include links to the hotels/b&b’s/castles (yes, I said castles) we’ll be staying at. This feature will allow us to share where the places we visit are located.

The lists below highlight some of the places we plan on visiting (click on each tab for the list for that portion of the trip):

      I used word press with a theme I purchased. The theme included the map, photo galleries, etc. I just had to learn how to use it. It took a little while, but wasn’t that difficult once I got used to it. Each separate post took maybe 3 hours or so, a lot of which was coding the map points and the paths. If I can be of assistance, feel free to ask.
