That's the right side of the car and the correct side of the road 
My dad has driven in France a few times in his car...roundabouts (US - circles) now those were wacko! He gave up trying to drive in NJ though.

In Anguilla, (my vacation is merely days away!) they have roundabouts too and many free roaming animals, (goats, bulls, dogs, donkeys too!), it is interesting to say the least!! There also it is wrong side of the road and normal side of the car!
There also it is wrong side of the road and normal side of the car! I have one of those too but video doesn't display after upload - it must be too large a file ?!?!
So I'll add a couple of pics instead

I regularly drive in europe and have no problem at all driving a left hand drive car on the right hand side, however when I have taken my personal car into europe I find that I have to think twice about everything to do with manouvers lol..........
Nice pics, glad you enjoyed your trip

Yes - the drive in the left - watch for traffic on the right was a real fright .... especially the first time I turned off a round about directly into oncoming traffic
Only did that a couple of times!!

, sitting on the wrong side is basically like turning off my natural instinct for whats right and wrong when positioning the vehicle lol.

Nice Pictures. The Cliffs of Moher are from my county of Clare and I see you visited some fine pubs in temple bar Dublin.
