ExplorA8tion Ireland! 5th - 15/16th June 2016 - Completed!
Ok, so I'e been back a couple of days now but it was 03:30 on Friday morning when we finally pulled into the drive!
Angela and I had driven 2630 miles at an average speed of 32MPH and 22.1MPG door to door.
First and foremost I must Thank Neil and Sean for the awesome amount of work they did planning and executing this trip. There wasn't a day went by without us seeing some stunning sights and enjoying great company and experiences.
I'll do a little write up with a few photos in the next few days; but as a taster, Neil, Nick and Ann, myself and Angela spent the last night here, and someone else picked up the bulk of the tab!
