What a great guide to this area of Ireland. I visited Ireland in November and toured Newgrange and the Hill of Tara while there and it is truly a wonderful experience. The visitor center is impressive as well. Being a part of the small cohort on the winter solstice would be the chance of a lifetime but the simulation is still a heart stopping moment as well. Highly recommend.

Yes, I experienced the simulation and agree with you about the uniqueness of the chance to see it first hand. Maybe once :-)

Thanks for reading and commenting!

I really want to go to Ireland because it’s a huge part of where I come from. It’s absolutely gorgeous and I love the picture of the inside during the Winter Soltice. I’m thinking Florida to Nova Scotia and then pop over to Ireland 😉. Should not be too bad flying from Nova Scotia to Ireland?

It’s really one place I want to go and also you have shown some beautiful places over in Austria and Croatia… just gorgeous places. One which I would love to live- the little town I believe it’s in Austria and has a population of 700 and there’s the “lake” with the mountain backdrop 😍

Thank you for taking us on these adventures. I really enjoy it.

I just now saw your comment, sorry! There are flights from Florida to Ireland, just depends on the proximity of airports. Yes, Hallstatt is the one you liked best :-)

I need to take the shortest flight from one piece of land to the other. I don't like flying over a body of water... it's just this thing I have 🤷‍♀️

It is! The highlight of my whole year! When you're near, be sure to stop by it, with kids.
