I’ve never been to Ireland, but I’ve seen pictures. It’s exceedingly green in all those pictures. I’ll bet that’s why Ireland is called the Emerald Isle, eh?
According to Claire, I’ll have to bring along my thermals and parka when I visit Ireland, because in Kelly’s Alien Life, it’s very cold there (in my world, anything under 70F is unpleasant; under 50F is downright miserable). But I’m prepared to make that sacrifice! Sadly, it means I won’t be moving to Ireland… in this lifetime. Bummer.

There’s a reason why it’s so green here in Ireland, Kelly, and it’s all the rain we get….
You probably would find it a bit cold over here, too. Our climate is generally just cool and damp. But when we get bright dry days, they’re fabulous.
Oh, and because of the rain? We also get a lot of rainbow, which I think you’d probably enough!
Gosh that Claire talks some sense 🙂
Claire’s last blog post… Cleaning and Pondering
@Catherine… Yes, I’ve heard that about Ireland. In fact, the last time one of my friends visited, he arrived during a drought. It hadn’t rained in a week. And it didn’t rain until his last day there.
I do love the rainbows, so I’ll eventually get around to visiting. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
@Claire… Doesn’t she just? LOL
