OBSERVATION: Extremely friendly and helpful people. Only met three negative people - and none of them were Irish!
OBSERVATION: Driving is stressful! Manuevering around roundabouts. Driving on the left side. Narrow one-lane roads where one of the vehicles needs to back-up to let the other through. People pushing babies in strollers and/or walking their dogs on 80 kph curving roads. Cyclists without helmets. Driving into oncoming traffic (we did that twice).
OBSERVATION: Where
are all the salads and vegetables? We sometimes received a cherry tomato
or two for breakfast. A
"salad" at a restaurant has been a few lettuce leaves with a
sprinkling of shredded carrots although on day 15 we had amazing salads (Caeser
and Cobb) at the Old Schoolhouse Bar in Swords.
OBSERVATION: Where
are all the street name signs?
OBSERVATION: Flower boxes!
Love all the gorgeous flowers hanging from windows of homes and
businesses.
OBSERVATION: Noticed several American beers sold in pints
and Budweiser and Miller Light on draft.
OBSERVATION: Interesting showers. Lots of dials and
buttons. One required that a string be pulled.
We had to Google instructions for a couple of them. We discovered later that some of the showers needed to be 'powered on'.
