Soleil goes to Ireland!

Soleil surveying the tulips at the Delphi Lodge, County Galway (western coast)
Hmmm...they don't taste as pretty as they look.

Papi experiencing a true Irish pub.


Papi, Mummy and Soleil at the fantastic Delphi Lodge, where we stayed for 2 nights.



Daddy skipping stones




Exploring the rock beach in Galway.





A spring lamb just born hours before!






Soleil was amazed by the sheep in the hills.







"Can you believe how beautiful this place is??"








Trying to get to YoYo as he chases the ball into the river.









First time in a footed bathtub!










Daddy and Soleil at the Cliffs.











The Cliffs of Moher...this picture does them no justice.












At the awe-mazing Cliffs of Moher.













Soleil and Daddy trying to stay warm at the Cliffs of Moher.














Riding a horse and buggy through the botanical gardens in Kilkenny.















Papi, Daddy and Soleil in Kinsale, a beautiful sailing town in southern Ireland.
















Running around the garden at our B &B in Blarney.

















At the beach at Ardmore in Ireland.


















Eating lunch in The Forge in Ardmore, Ireland



















Soleil in the Waterford Crystal Showroom in Waterford, Ireland. We were completely paranoid having her so close to so much fragile material!




















Little Irish cottage.





















Refusing to pose at the Powerscourt Estate in eastern Ireland.






















Outside Queen of Tarts, the best little bakery in Ireland!!























Posing among the tulips and contemplating a fast getaway!
























Beauty only found in nature...

























Observing the beautiful tulips on display in St. Stephen's Green.


























The one that almost got away!



























We even managed to find a cute little park in St. Stephen's Green in Dublin!




























Enjoying a spot of afternoon tea in The Shelbourne in Dublin. It was so much fun and we loved pretending that we were really important. Soleil, however, was not so impressed!
