Very Rough First Pass at Itinerary I'm planning my first trip to Ireland from Jun13th through th 26th... I'm trying to sort out a 2 week trip that won't be too overwhelmed with driving times but that's proven to be rather difficult.
Here's a first pass itinerary... Any advice you might have would be great !
Thur:16 June: Drive to Kilkenny / See Glendalough and Wicklow along the way
Fri: 17 June: Kilkenny (any advice on where to stay?)
Sat: 18 June: Drive to Kenmare (stop at Midleton Jameson Distillery along the way if possible) Is this realistic? Stay in Kenmare
Sun: 19 June: Stay in Kenmare (Ring of Kerry)
Mon: 20 June: Drive to Limerick via Dingle Penninsula (or anywhere someone suggests staying in this area)
Tues:21 June: Burren / Cliffs of Moher (any suggestions of where to stay) Galway?
Weds:22 June: Galway
Thurs:23 June: Drive to Ballynahinch Castle
Fri: 24 June: Ballynahinch Castle / Connemara
Sat: 25 June: Long drive across to near Dublin airport
Sun: 26 June: Fly back to Los Angeles
The only thing I have currently booked is my flight arrangements and first 3 nights in Dublin.
Does this trip sound realistic? The goal is to not be too overwhelmed with long driving times.
I am sooo happy I found this website... BTW, when does the 2005 edition of the book come out?

U2 Wow...
Okay its gonna be CRAZY...
Well I actually bought a couple of fan club tickets at an outrageous price (too much to admit) so I figure if I'm going to deal with the thousands of people I might as well enjoy the concert!
