I went on a work-trip to Ireland in January. \u00a0It was a nice change of scenery, and it was good to see some extra sunlight.<\/p>\n

At the airport, about to fly to Belfast.<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Waiting to board.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Ireland had a smattering of snow covering it.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Stopping at a hotel\/restaurant close to the airport.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Good food.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Back to the little rental car.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

We stopped at the factory we were going to work in over the weekend before arriving at the country-side hotel. Here are my two beds: One for sleeping in and one for storing my clothes. So helpful to have an extra bed!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Old style, but pretty.<\/p><\/div>\n

The outside of the hotel, and my coworker. The hotel was unusual in that they didn’t start serving breakfast until 8 am, so we had a relatively late start.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Where we stopped for a late lunch.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Almost all of the snow gone!<\/p><\/div>\n

A new restaurant for lunch, this time with a view!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The view from where we sat.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Last day in the countryside. This was the view out of my window.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

My coworker checking out by the grand staircase.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Very cosy seating area downstairs.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

This hotel hosts a lot of weddings apparently!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

We left the factory at a reasonable hour, and drove back to Belfast.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Scenes from Belfast.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Not a lot of people around.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

When we booked the tickets, we didn’t realize that driving to Dublin, and flying directly home would have been a lot better than driving to Belfast, flying to London, and then to Iceland. You live you learn! This is us boarding the early morning plane in Belfast.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Hanging out at Heathrow airport, waiting for our flight home.<\/p><\/div>\n

We made it home in one piece, and that was the end of that work-trip!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
