Ireland Trips 2013

2013 saw another year for Tori and Glenn to spend some great time together. We spent two weeks in July and another two in August doing various activities. So another year of visiting Irish locations/attractions, that’s 5 years in a row, we’ll really have to get away to another country or two next year!

Anyway, the weather was very kind to us this year, at least for the first couple of weeks I was off with Tori. We had temperatures of over 30 degrees…! That called for a few trips to the beach. We actually got to the beach three times in one week, that’s not a common occurrence during Irish summer holidays.

Anyway, this year also say trips to the circus, Butlers Chocolate Factory, MotoCrossing in Wicklow, the Carnaval and a few days stay in a hotel in Tullamore. The hotel in Tullamore was great, a real family-friendly place.

I also managed to get out for a couple of spins on a couple of really nice Saturdays, on the road bikes…:)

We will probably try to do some more Irish trips next year, but will also try to get away to another country then too.

Some pics of these trips posted in the gallery. See this page and under Summer 2013 – Irish Trips 2013.

 

MotoGP Silverstone 2013

Well I have always wanted to go to a GP and thanks to Alice, this year we are 🙂

Alice surprised me on valentines with a trip to Silverstone for the MotoGP! The tickets only arrived this week. So in two weeks time the dream will come true when Alice and I will be track-side for the race.

Can’t wait, thanks Alice…
