On Monday we should prepare a PC for another location of our Company in Carrick. This still had to occur on Monday, because our boss has gone on Tuesday to a meeting to Carrick.

Furthermore our boss has wished a simple slide show of photos that represents the office in Dublin. We took pictures and put them in a small slide show at the same day, because it should be finished before tuesday.

Enclosed some pictures of the slide show…

On Friday we safed local user profiles of employees. This was necessary because on PC’s still runs the operating system Windows XP. These should be exchanged for new PC’s with the operating system Windows 7 and the old local user profile should be transferred on the new machine.

In the evening I was at the gym with my colleague. Afterwards we made some purchases and prepared our dinner.

In the late evening we went in the direction of Temple Bar…

At first we should install various software on the PC’s of our test environment. We installed web browsers like firefox and chrome in addition to the Internet Explorer. Furthermore we configured the web browser individuel. We had to classify various web pages as trusted pages that the employees can visit these pages.

In the evening we were at Tesco (supermarket) to make our daily purchases…

At the second day of our trip we went to limerick and visit King John´s castle. From the tower you have a nice view over the city. This day in limerick was a run so the town was full and at the castle a fireworks was prepared.  The last step on Sunday we went to Bundoran. It´s a little village in North West of Ireland and it is famous for surfing. The weather this day was not so good so we were not swim. In the evening we went back to our Apartment’s in Dublin. To see more pictures have a look on the post´s of Vernon called The Roadtrip

From 2nd to 4th of May we do a trip through Ireland. At first we visit the tullamore dew brewery. I´m no friend of whiskey but it was interesting to see how it was made and to taste three varieties of tullamore dew. I prefer the original tullamore dew. This whiskey tastes mild. The other two tasted very strong and smoky. It was nice to try it out but I have recognized again whiskey is not my favorite drink. After the tour through the brewery drove to the cliffs of moher. The route was very spectacular. We had meet a herd of cows on the road and drove on routes where 100km/h are the speed limit but if you drive 100 km/h you will die… We had a good driver so we don´t died, fortunately. The cliffs were really beautiful. Have a look on my pictures. In the evening we searched for a Apartment in Ennis to be able to continue our Roadtrip the next day…

The Roadtrip

Saturday 02.05.2015

On this weekend we made a Roadtrip through Ireland.

First of all we went through Killbagon to Tullamore by car. We visited the Tullamore Dew brewery there. We got a guidance by the brewery with a tasting. Of course I drunk nothing, because I had to drive the car.

Afterwards we further went to the famous Cliffs of Moher. The way through the mountain roads was very impressive. For a short time even cow’s met us in the oncoming traffic.
The Cliffs of Moher were indescribable.

In the evening we searched for a Apartement in Ennis to be able to continue our Roadtrip the next day…
