What’s the best traditional Irish pub you've ever been to in Ireland? Be honest! ☘ Special thanks to @irelandpix for this snap of Dan Foley's pub in Annascaul, County Kerry #loveireland #irland #irlande #irlanda #kerry #pubs #irishpub

Happy #StPatricksDay! Definitely forgot to wear any green today but here's a #tbt to some late summer #thistles I spotted in a little cemetery when we were cycling on #inismor last year. 💚 #ashandsheavacay

"The so-called Irish temperament is a mixture of flaming ego, hot temper, stubbornness, great personal charm and warmth, and a wit that shines through adversity. An irrepressible buoyancy, vivacious spirit, a kindliness and tolerance for the common frailties of man and a feeling that 'it is time enough to bid the devil good morning when you meet him' are character traits which Americans have associated with their Irish neighbours for more than a century" -Carl Wittke, Historian Happy #StPatricksday to the people of this amazing Emerald Isle! Today I dreamed these views once again and wished that I could be there to witness your amazing celebrations of Irish culture and traditions. #tb #Ireland #thisisireland
