Back From Ireland

We had a great trip. I was ready to stay, but as my husband put it - "with what?" I couldn't argue with him. I am slowly posting my pictures to picasa. I took thousands of pictures! Some of which are not good, but a lot turned out well. I plan to return to Ireland, maybe in 2011.
I used Trip Advisor.com and Formmer's message board to help plan my trip. I have not posted any reviews as of yet, but I am planning on doing so. In Rush we stayed at Sandy Hills B&B - wonderful place and very friendly owner, Mary Buckley. Rush worked out as a good location from which to visit Newgrange and Dublin. In Ennis we stayed at Carbery B&B it was a nice place, but is only open at limited times. We booked this place at the Ennis Tourist Information Office, as suggested by Mary Buckley. Ennis felt like home. In Dingle we stayed at Coastline Guesthouse and enjoyed our stay. It is located on the harbour and a short walk from the center of town. Our last night was at the Bunratty Lodge. It was a huge room with a queen, double, and single size beds and 2 bathrooms! Close to Bunratty Castle and the Shannon airport. We got lost often, but it was part of the experience! The people were friendly, it didn't rain on us, the food was good, we heard good music, and enjoyed the places we visited! Ireland was a wonderful vacation spot.
