We're back from Limerick ! Kelly & I drove down to Limerick with friends Sean, Ashley and Suzanne to play in the Irish Open Softball Tournament at the University of Limerick. Although our team from Dublin didn't enter the tournament, we were able to get on a mixed team of University of Limerick players and players from University College Dublin.
There were about 30 teams in the tournament. It rained off and on all weekend which made for some really muddy fields, but we still had a blast. There were parties at night and a big bbq on Saturday. Our team made it to the Final Four but were beaten by our crosstown Dublin rivals the Blazzers.
(Sean,Chris & Suzanne having a good laugh)We didn't take many pictures, because we were very busy having fun !
It is a 3 hour drive from Dublin to Limerick, another opportunity for us to enjoy the Irish countryside.
Much of the drive is on the N7 motorway, but there is still alot to see.
County Tipperary was especially beautiful. We are planning a trip back out to the Southwest part of the country very soon.

Great scenery, thanks for sharing these pics , Chris.
Are there any irish natives on these teams ?
Love you like a brother in law , Helen
Most of the team is Irish. On our team of 15 or so, we only have two Americans and 2 Canadians.
