Ireland: travelogue December 2002
We had not been to Ireland yet, so this winter we are flying there and rent a car for 10 days. And of course we also go to Northern Ireland, for us that just belongs to the country. We think it is a beautiful, lovely country with a somewhat less rugged nature than Scotland. But what we especially notice are the large new houses that are being built everywhere in the countryside. The economy is certainly doing well.
