Pub (19k)

 


As you probably already know, Ireland is well-known for its pubs.  We saw them everywhere, even in the smallest towns and they were always brightly colored and covered with Guinness beer signs - you'd swear it was their national beverage.

At the left is a night shot of a pub we passed by during our trip to Waterford.

 


For our last evening in Ireland, we headed out to a local pub for a pint or two, live traditional music, and some great conversation with the locals (several were actually Deebs' cousins).

The next morning we packed up and headed out.  Our week was over, and even though we'd seen and experienced a lot, we knew we'd only scratched the surface.  It is difficult to describe our thoughts, feelings, and experiences on this website.  The friendliness of the people, the tradition, the history, the culture, the great food - it all truly has to be experienced.  Consider Ireland as a place to go on vacation in the future.  You won't regret it.
  

While this wasn't a typical car club event, we had a very enjoyable time.  Special thanks goes to Deebs and his family for opening their home to us, and for being a great source for information on the culture and history of this beautiful country.

Interested in joining us for club events in the future?  Take a look at the Saturn Performance Club website for a schedule of future activities, and join the SPC mailing list to know what's going on.
