It's still hard to put into words what an incredible and magical experience this trip was for me.
 

This trip marked my 3rd time visiting the Emerald Isle, but my first trip I planned entirely solo.  When I tell you that everything went off without a hitch, I’m giving you the complete truth.  This adventure was filled with so much laughter, giddy surprises, breathtaking scenery, historical sites, great hotels and food, wowing energetic places, amazing conversations, loving moments, and memories that I know our 44 travelers will be talking about for years to come.  I’ve truly fallen in love with that beautiful country; Ireland really carries a magic and energy unlike anything else I have ever felt.   Oh Ireland, until we meet again...thank you for being so charming and once again, life-changing.

 

I wanted to share with you some of my favorite photos above too – while my camera roll may be filled with a couple thousand photos from this trip (ha!); these are ones that were filled with so much Grá. (Grá means love in its most simple translation.) As in any language there are of course many terms of endearment and ways of expressing love for someone. There are thousands of ways to tell someone you love them in Gaelic, just as there are thousands of different types of love.
