Open for Suggestions


Dear Friends,


I would like to call upon the good offices of the many participants in this forum.


We will be staying, (my wife, 13 year old daughter, and I) as I see it now, three nights in Dublin, two nights in Dungarvan, County Waterford, 2 nights in the vicinity of Kilarney, 2 nights in Galway and 2 nights in Doolin.


Please take a moment and tell me what, if you were we, you would not miss in or near any of these places, if this were your one and only trip to Ireland.  We have a good sense of what we want to do in Dublin already (though your comments are most welcome).  It is the other stopping places I am most interested in your thoughts about.


Thank you, friends, in advance.


Kevin

Thanks Michele.  Yes, as you said, we go in the Spring.  Arrive April 9, leave April 20 (Easter is the 16th).


Look forward to others' comments and suggestions, including, if possible, what you liked about the thing or place you are suggesting.


Thanks again,


Kevin

Kevin,


Be patient. I think a lot of people are really busy right now preparing for the holidays. Once the festivities are over thoughts always turn back to Ireland again here on the forum.


Michele
