Hi...I moved to your new forum, sorry for the confusion! Jodi
: Hi Pat,
: I think?? I have an itinerary planned out, based upon your books, your advice and our interests. I'm traveling with my two children: 15 year old son and an 11 year old daughter... I appreciate your time and expertise...Here goes!!
: Arrive Dublin 6/23/07 am.
: Sa 6/23 Dublin: sight see: Book of Kells, Trinity College, ?Dublinia
: Su 6/24 Dublin: Mass at St. Pat's...?drive south/west
: ?unsure to stay Sunday night in Dublin and drive Monday?
: M 6/25 Tralee: Ballyseede Castle
: T 6/26 Killarney:
: W 6/27 Killarney:
: Th 6/28 Killarney:
: Plan to see Dingle Peninsula(Fungie), Ring of Kerry, Killarney National Park, ?Gap of Dunloe, Blarney Castle, ?horseback ride
: F 6/29 Galway:
: Sa 6/30 Galway:
: Su 7/1 Galway:
: Plan to see Aran Islands, Connemara(catamaran), Kylemore Abbey, Galway City
: M 7/2 Bunratty Folk Park and Banquet

: Additional questions:
: Best to pick up car in Dublin (not airport?)
: Best place to experience Irish Music with older children?
: Any recommended stops from Dublin to Tralee? ?Irish National Studs,?Kilkenny,?Waterford
: Recommendations re: accommodations. Since I'm traveling alone with two children I'm leaning toward hotels rather than B/B's...unless you highly recommend someone you're familiar with.
: Where to fit in Cliffs of Moher, Ailwee Caves?
: Wise to drive Ring of Kerry v. taking bus tour? We'll be renting from DDooley (just have to keep my 15 year old navigator focused!!)
: Anything else you'd recommend?
: Thanks again, Jodi G.
