Photos of Ireland -- January, 2004

These photographs of Ireland were all taken in January of 2004. There are more than 100 photos. January may seem like an unusual time to tour Ireland, but it was a good time to look for Irish woolens for our customers in the USA and Canada. We hope you enjoy the photos.

We also have photos of Ireland from July 2005 and photos of Ireland from 2007.
