| me and my bitches |
Last Friday Stephen and I had a picnic up at the Silent Valley.
It's a breathtaking spot just a few miles from his hometown of Kilkeel.
The mountains, the forests, the water, the rolling green hills..
it really is a magical place to hike..or in my case..stroll.
We ate by the water in that first picture,
and watched his dogs play..
and in honour of the queens diamond jubilee I dressed in my red white and blue.
I really love being in Ireland (north or south)
I find the people so incredibly friendly,
and the whole place smells like farm (which i find sorta peaceful)
what? You dont find the smell of cow poop calming?
weird.
It has been given the name, Emerald Isle, for a reason.
Northern Ireland is by far my favorite country in the UK.

Those pictures are beautiful. I need to go to Ireland for a trip soon, I'm from England and it's crazy I've never been!
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of you and the bitches. I also love the hell out of some picnics. So, I'm coming to visit. We can wear our watches that say the wrong time/have no battery.
ReplyDeleteAbsolute perfection. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese photos are so peaceful.
ReplyDeleteps: I wish I'd a sweetheart with bitches, I have been dog obsessing like crazy lately!
This looks gorgeous! I love how the mountains?hills? end right into the lake. I'd never want to leave...
ReplyDeleteIt's my absolute dream to visit Ireland one day! These pictures were breathtakingly beautiful ! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like something out of Harry Potter. So obviously I love it.
ReplyDeleteYou and your bitches look mighty fine.
ReplyDeleteI lived in Paris for 2 years and London for 2 years and never made it to Ireland. Your pictures are breathtaking. I will get there.
ReplyDeleteoh wow. that place looks incredible. I would love to hike there, maybe someday :)

ReplyDeleteWow this looks so incredibly serene...I'd love to visit Ireland one day! :)
ReplyDeleteSOOOO beautiful! I love finding beautiful spots to visit around me. Maybe someday I'll see this one!
ReplyDeleteI think you guys should move there and raise puppies and walk in green hills all day long. And then blog about it so we can all be super jealous like we are now. Such a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteI love me some Ireland. I have decided...I am living Vicariously through you; so thanks for having a wicked awesome life. :)
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks gorgeous! Way to represent during the Diamond Jubilee ;)

I want to go back to Ireland as soon as possible! I was there last year and really loved it. In Northern Ireland I just visited Giant's Causeway, but I'd love to see more!
ReplyDeleteWow. So gorgeous.

Fun way to spend a day! Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeletewhat lovely pictures! =) my husband and i took a trip several years ago (about 6) to southern ireland and we'd really like to see northern ireland and scotland in 2013 or 2014. ireland is my favorite place in all the world. both of our families trace our roots back there and it just feels like home.
ReplyDeletethese pictures make me happy. and i long to be there!
That had to be such a breathtakingly beautiful day! I've never been to Northern Ireland, but I've visited distant relatives in Killarney, and I'm dying to go back to Ireland. Everything about that country is gorgeous.
ReplyDelete1. Amazeball pics
ReplyDelete2. Perfect caption
3. Can't wait to go there
Kind of like Isle Esme... you guys are just like Edward and Bella, after all.
ReplyDeleteJust looking at these pictures made me feel calm. Like I literally had a moment where I wasn't thinking about anything and just really appreciating the serenity those pictures evoked. I can't even imagine what it would be like to actually be there. I'd probably like implode from nirvana or something.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Would love to do a month long trip to the British Isles one day :)

Beautiful pictures! I hope to visit Northern Ireland sometime too.
ReplyDeleteWow...that water is just beautiful. How fun!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are breathtaking! Such a beautiful place to be. On a side note - have you ever read the Yellow House? It's not a happy-go-lucky book, but it's about Northern Ireland during the revolution and I couldn't put it down! You might like it considering you get to spend time there. Lucky Duck.
ReplyDeletesteal my soul.

stumbled across your blog and just want to express my affection for it. apologies first off as my blog holds a similar name. I thought I had researched all blogs with a similar name before picking it! but, I too, ditched my California sunnies for an UK umbrella and love it! ok. now I'm rambling...I'll be following now, as your blog is lovely.

I love love love Ireland. I went three times in March! So perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures ! Have been to Ireland and Northern Ireland myself, and especially the North of Ireland is magical somehow... When I went, I took a plane from London early at dusk and could watch the sun rise over this most green island ... breathtaking !!

How is it that I have been in Ireland for 11 years and I have still yet to go up North? It must be me being a complete fool. Cause seriously, nature + farm smells are right up my alley. In a good way.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos!
