1 ~~~ Three Perfect Days ~ Ireland ~~~
Anyone lucky enough to travel to Ireland will relate to Johnny Cash’s description of writing one of his most cherished songs.
As he drove through the country, looking at the map on his lap, rhymes started to flow.
“The names in Ireland beg to be sung,” Cash said, “and for the title I looked out the window, and there they were, ‘40 Shades of Green.’”
On the Emerald Isle—where the poet-to-sheep ratio rivals the natural beauty in legend and scale—memories are made from the magical encounters along the way.
Whether in the misty countryside or the cozy confines of a pub, travelers road-tripping from Galway to Dublin will find warm hospitality and stories told (with equal parts horror and humor) by what Cash called the “fine, kind people.”
May the road, and a raincoat, rise up to meet you.
