Things We'll Be Doing
Derryglad Folk and Heritage Museum
We love museums! In fact, a large portion of dates that we go on are to museums (art, history, oddities, and more!). Museums have always been a fun pastime for us because while we get to learn about whatever we're exploring, we also learn more about each other's interests and reactions to new things. We're constantly nonstop chatting, getting lost, wandering around, and gawking at the new things we get to see.
Beans & Leaves
We can't LEAVE Ireland without any BEANS!!! While this restaurant was mainly chosen because of the giggles the name gave Lisa, it's also supposed to have all-day breakfast food, which is Lisa's favorite genre of food.
Athlone Castle Visitor Centre
A castle? In Ireland? How original.
Menlo Castle
"Anotha one!" -Probably DJ Khalid in Ireland seeing yet another castle, and will 100% be Lisa in Tom's ear when passing various castles
Chapter One Restaurant
2 Michelin Stars - will we go? Maybe, if we can get a reservation.
Jameson Distillery Bow St.
Lisa may hate whiskey, but she LOVES Tom, so who knows, maybe straight from the distillery will be better.
Sean's Bar
Historic pub? Of course we'll take a pint!
Guinness Storehouse
Once again an alcohol that Lisa dislikes, but love for Tom prevails over all dislikes! Plus, the Guinness in Ireland tastes different, so it'll be a cool experience regardless.
Dunguaire Castle
Another fucking castle. Lisa has never been in a castle, and has become consumed with the idea of seeing castles. Does Lisa want to be a princess in a castle? Maybe, but only a princess that also gets to carry a sword because swords are cool. Plus, who doesn't want to sword fight their spouse as a part their wedding trip?
Castle Hackett
Lisa still likes castles apparently
The Fatted Calf
We gotta eat somewhere - why not at a place that is known for meat.
Ross Errilly Friary
Oh look! A friary! Very historical, very different from a castle.
Wicklow Mountains
Mountain air for our asthmatic lungs. But in reality, another one of our favorite things to do is go on nature walks (or very light hiking - distance over difficulty is our preference). Ireland is known for some very beautiful views that have nothing to do with castles.
Howth
More nature views for us to visit! Whether its beaches, cliffs, woods, lakes, or fields we want to see them!
Glendalough Visitor Centre
We love nature walks, so finding beautiful landscapes will always be on our travel lists. National and state parks (or similar things) are so fun to go to, and we make a point to visit them when we can. Fun fact, we have a yearly pass for Delaware State Parks thanks to Tom's lovely Grammy Bo
Glendeer Pet Farm
Are Irish cows different from American cows? Probably not significantly, but we will find out and give them all the cuddles we are allowed to.
Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud
Another 2 Michelin Stars??? Same question as before - will we go? Maybe, if we can get a reservation.
