Pre-drive the more difficult roads on Google Earth


We were on a road trip through the Irish Republic. I chose a back road that ran through what is called "The Vee" - a cut in the mountains between Cashel and the Southern Coast. Taking it took loads of time although worth it. We got to Lismore, took a brief look at the gardens and castle, and realized we had better get a  place to stay. My wife wondered where the local Tourist Office was, but I said that I knew of a Bed and Breakfast down the highway and then turn left. She looked at me like I was crazy. Maybe. But, I had "driven" that road several times on Google Earth!
