September???


Well, since our April/May trip was cancelled due to the volcano, we are now considering travelling in September (I thought it would be a fun way to spend my birthday)!

Keith is a little skeptical - he prefers to visit when there are little to no crowds. I am looking at Sept 14-30. We would be staying in a self catering in County Mayo so we can track his family roots.

Any thoughts as to how it would compare to April?

Wendy-
We have been to Ireland both in May and late September and we prefer September. We ran into few crowds and lots of good deals as it was the end of the high season. We have been fortunate that we ahve had great weather in September, no total washout days. Everything is a nice shade of green! We will actually be in Ireland again this September-almost the same dates! Maybe see you there!

Wendy, 

I'm in the same boat as you. I am currently rescheduling my trip to Ireland too! I touch briefly on the differences between travel in spring and fall on the Irish Fireside podcast Michele vs the Volcano. 

They are obviously different seasons with the associated differences. Days are longer in May and shorter in Sept. Spring as opposed to Fall. Different flowers and plants are blooming but it is still emerald green. Not a ton of tourists in either month. The trees may even be changing.

Go in Sept. You will love it!
