Dreams really do come true...

Well, it looks like it might actually happen... something we've wanted for years...

Now, we just have to pick up this:



Because we're going to Ireland!! We've been pseudo-planning this trip for years, and it looks like we're finally visiting the emerald isle this spring! (Perfect timing for our wedding anniversary too). Here are some of the flavors that have us hooked:



Why Ireland? 1. It is inexplicably alluring. 2. We did not get our fill of ruins in Scotland. 3. Celtic music, in all of its flavors, is fabulous! 4. Very old + modern + Irish spirit = fascinating and worthy of firsthand experience!

So my question is - does anyone have tips on what we MUST see?

A few days in Dublin are on the plan, including a visit to Trinity College, a peek at the Book of Kells, and plenty of great music and pubs; driving across the country and exploring various ruins; gaping at the Ring of Kerry and that famous lonely, winsome, and windswept rocky green coast of Ireland.

And of course, many, many photographs.

Any other suggestions from fellow adventurers? Send me a note!
