travelogue, 5.05


Yes, that's 50 MPH on the gravel, one-lane, two-way road. FIFTY.

These people are insane. Seriously. Ireland just recently went through and swapped over to kilometers and put up all new roadsigns.So, we're trundling along and come across this -- a road that is barely wide enough for one car (and is a two-lane road, don't worry!) with an 80 km/hr speed limit. That's 49.7 miles per hour.

On a one lane, gravel road that is going ot have oncoming traffic.


And this is another two-way road, rather average for Ireland's side-roads
