You can pick one up at AAA for about $15. If don't have one and you get stopped by the Guard they will take your US driver's license away.

We tended to stay at B&Bs. Out of all the castles we went through Bunratty was the best restored. They also have a "19th century Irish Village" that you can walk through. It was very fun. It's about halfway between Shannon and Limerick. If you're going to be on that side of the country you also go through The Burren. It is a very interesting place and there are a number of tombs and round "forts" that you can visit. Dysart O'Dea castle was also very interesting to go through. My boss is an O'Dea so that might have made it more interesting for me but they had a good video regarding the history of the castle and there was a nice tea shop on the ground floor. This is also in Co. Clare. There were several in Co. Galway but I don't remember the names. We got lost going through Galway City. Those roundabouts are.........interesting. If you're planning to drive I won't recommend you fly into Dublin unless you're used to the traffic there and driving on the left. Sorry for being a bit rambling.

I've been told by others to fly directly into Shannon if we want to avoid the crowds and truly just enjoy the sites/scenery. If anything, I'll probably set it up so that we fly out of Shannon so we don't have to backtrack back to Dublin. I'm really looking forward to the drive up the west coast, I've heard it's really amazing. Did you stay at any of the castles? I'm curious about the rates on the different rooms they offer at some of them. Are there any particular castles you would recommmend visiting?

Hung around there for a few days, went to Bunratty Castle and Folk Park which was very fun. We then drove up to Co. Galway and into Connemara. This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen and I've been around awhile. We spent about a week there driving around, exploring the castles and the land. We drove up to Co. Mayo for a couple days and then down to Co. Kerry. We didn't have near enough time to see everything but we went around on our own and not part of a tour so we could take our time and do what pleased us. Early summer is a good time. The weather was decent and there weren't too many tourists yet.

I've been lurking on this list for several years and have come to appreciate the vast majority of technical expertise from individuals all over the world. Based on the dispersement of that expertise, I'm looking for assistance of a different type. :) I just proposed to my girlfriend of over 2 years this past weekend. Thankfully, she accepted. Obviously we're very early in the planning stages but the one thing I want to get right is the honeymoon. She has wanted to visit Ireland her entire life, and although I've travelled extensively thoughout the US and Canada, I'm a novice when it comes to "crossing the pond". I'd love to hear from anyone who has personally been to Ireland and could recommend some interesting spots to visit. I've briefly looked at www.authenticireland.com and reviewed some of their packages. I have to say, staying in some of the Castles and touring the pubs is very intriguing, but I'd also appreciate advice on some of "must visit" sites in Ireland. I'm planning on a 10-14 day excursion with a rental car, so driving long distances shouldn't be too big of a problem. Any advice on the best time of year would be greatly appreciated as well. Thanks in advance :) - Sean ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
