SO....I've received my citizenship, have my passport, & I'm now in search of a proper pint of "The Mother's Milk" !
For those of you that live there or have visited, I seek your opinion:
I'm going in mid June 2016. I really have no desire to see the "tourist attractions"....I want to see the island itself & meet the people. So far, I'm thinking: 2 days in Dublin, 2 in Belfast, Donegal, Galway, 2 in the Ennis area to visit family, ring of Kerry, Cork, Wexford/Waterford, Dublin.
The options I've settled on:
Get a hotel in the middle somewhere....maybe Athlone....& taking day trips, which allows me to see the middle of everything.
Head north (or south) from Dublin & just play it by ear...come & go as I please.
I'll be by myself, I'm adventurous & aside from the Cliffs of Moher & maybe falconry in Ashford, I'm open to everything/anything.
So, what say you ???? :-)
