Our Trusty Steed

You will notice that the left side, the side against the stone wall and the hedges, is still intact. No dents, no scratches. We made a big loop around the Republic, with a few detours, and a little backtracking, but we found everything we wanted to find and came out in one piece!

VW Tiguan Diesel. 7 passenger SUV. Snappy, hard to hold to speed limit, it wanted to run!

I like the name too. Tiguan is a combination of Tiger and Iguana, which is fitting for the style of driving we did. 913 miles driven (I did the conversion) in basically 6 days, as Nick chauffeured us for two days, and it sat in the hotel parking lot in Dublin for two days. I wish we would have counted the round-a-bouts, which I hate by the way, especially when going the wrong way (left). Paula says we did at least 100. I say 200!
