Mary is just great and the weather was just as good! It doesn't get any better! - We spent seven days with Mary in the south west of Ireland and every day was unique. Mary is an excellent driver, also speaks very good French and knows her homeland like her waistcoat. History, culture, film, there's no subject Mary doesn't know about. She made our trip an unforgettable experience!
