WANDE
wandering-the-west-coast-an-irish
A couple of weeks ago, Mrs Soup and I went on a little adventure in Ireland. We were attending a family gathering in Kenmare, Co. Kerry and decided to make a road trip of how we got there.
Over the course of a couple of days, we journeyed down the West Coast of the Republic of Ireland. It was a vacation but we took the opportunity to visit a few interesting places along the way and I got a chance to play with my drone... Enjoy!
