Derry,
had a good night out with some good american folk I met at the hostel, thanks Allie, Brian, Shana & Tim. Walked around Derry town the next day around the 'Bloody Sunday' area.

Cork

drove out remote peninsula in the southwest, then over a pass into a beautiful remote area - Black Valley, apparently they didn't get electricity out there until the 70's, then Dunloe Gap to a still quiet lake.

Rome

Jazz bar with Ben (US) and Kylie (Aussie) from the hostel - I've been really blessed by meeting good people so far. Enjoyed some good Italian food and toured all the standard Roman sights and with Kylie, thanks mate.

Holy See

(Vatican City)

Also visitied The Vatican Museum. There's some fancy paintings in there, even some on the ceiling.
