If you’ve noticed a severe lack of posting around these parts, it’s because I’ve been deep in preparation for my upcoming trip to Ireland. I apologize for the lack of posts here & comments on other blogs. I leave tomorrow, and I am so excited for my road trip around Ireland! I have no idea if I’ll have a chance to post photos here during the trip, but either way, you can look forward to lots of photos & videos from Ireland when I return! For updates during my trip you can follow me on twitter @chowmeyow or @emilylovesbooks.
In the meantime, remember that you can still enter my giveaway to win a signed ARC copy of Packing for Mars by Mary Roach, right here. It will be open until August 18th.
Below are some vintage postcards from Ireland, found on the Library of Congress’s Flickr page.
Sláinte!

I hope you enjoy your roadtrip! Ireland is wonderful, or so I’ve been told. I have never been there unfortunately.
I hope you have a fantastic time! The vintage postcards are gorgeous. :)
I just stumbled on your blog today and those shots are making me excited for Ireland and I’m not even going! Have a great time!!! :)
Lucky, lucky! Hope it’s wonderful!
Have a wonderful trip!
Beautiful pictures, Emily! I have been quite terrible at reading blogs in the past few weeks and so missed your post. Hope you had a wonderful trip to Ireland! Looking forward to seeing your pictures.
