There is Mayo and then there is Ireland... She came when she was 8 yo and you can still hear a bit of a "twang". Before the virus she would go back many times..Her heart is in Mayo...Her family is wonderful... One thing she told me about driving in Ireland is to "mind the line and keep the bitch in the ditch"... If you think about it even here the drivers side is the side with the line... Same over there. So keep the line on YOUR side... like here and the passenger on the curb or "ditch" side...
