Oh very cool, I'm actually from Wales originally. My daughter and I were lucky and had a 4 day visit Belfast way 2019. Ireland is a beautiful country.
Yes, Ireland is beautiful...
Yes, I have led an eclectic life...
Hey @PTree15 where have you been to in Ireland?Hi Ally, and welcome! I so want to visit Scotland someday. I have been to Ireland and just loved it!
I'm from Connecticut in the USA.
Hi! I've been mostly to the Southwest region. It was so beautiful there. It was a hiking trip. Ten days of glorious walks. We of course hit the Cliffs of Moher (had to do some touristy things, haha) and Dingle (which was absolutely beautiful. It reminded me of Maine). We did parts of The Burren and we took a canoe trip to a castle (I forget which town). We also went to Limerick and Lisdoonvarna.
Sounds like a great visit! I too have been to all of those places... Especially Dingle, my husband was from Tralee so Dingle wasn’t a long drive from his mom’s house, we went there often...
It was wonderful. It's in my top three vacations. I remember sticking my feet in the water in Dingle and our Irish guide was like, it's sooooo cooooold. The water was probably 60 degrees or so, which for a New Englander is nippy, but still swimmable.
If I'd had a bathing suit, I would have jumped right in! That's cool about your husband! New Hampshire is another beautiful state. I love the mountains there. Connecticut has some gorgeous areas, too. The northern half of the state is beautiful, but the beaches are so-so, IMHO. I'm spoiled by the beaches in Rhode Island (my home state). 
I moved here when I was nine with my family, I just never moved back
. So what gave you the opportunity to live in those lovely places?Thankyou ptree, it is lovely here. Connecticut must be lovely too, I've visited a few places in the US (pre covid) but not your neck of the woods.Hi Ally, and welcome! I so want to visit Scotland someday.
