As you know, we spoiled ourselves to an extended weekend visiting counties Mayo, Galway and Clare in Ireland. We departed from Malahide early on Saturday and arrived in County Mayo at around midday, giving us ample time to explore the breath-taking Achill Island, one of Ireland's largest islands. From there we drove along the Atlantic coast and spent our first night in Hotel Westport, where apparently most Irish politicians including the current president usually reside. The next morning, we drove through the Connemara National Park and spent the 2nd night at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Galway. We even managed to stop for a pint in one of the pubs we went to on our first dating trip 5 years ago :-). On our way back to Dublin on Monday, we stopped at the famous 213m tall Cliffs of Moher. However, the visibility was not very clear due to strong Atlantic winds. All in all, it was a relaxing weekend that we still remember fondly. Sebastian has just uploaded a short video to our YouTube
