Rained a bit, but less than expected. Our hosts thanked us for bringing the tropical sunshine along. Yes, if you're after lots of sightseeing outdoors, you might miss out. But if you're after pubs and music trails and foodie adventures, you're still golden in autumn. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-943417 Tue, 28 May 2013 19:51:50 +0000 biscuitsmom 943417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How great! I envy you the opportunity :)&nbsp; We consider it a trip if we go 10 miles from here, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-942399 Mon, 27 May 2013 01:39:05 +0000 bj1111 942399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>we're going in late august. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-942388 Mon, 27 May 2013 01:25:23 +0000 Kari 942388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sheila, I am sure we will take a ton and I will make sure to share faves with YLF. We are going to be there for 9 days (including some time in Northern Ireland) and can't wait! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-942303 Sun, 26 May 2013 22:39:56 +0000 Sheila 942303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KARI! Now you, too! I know you will love Ireland (and Amsterdam, too, I see) because it definitely marches to a different drummer -- and I really dig the beat! Fun big-city adventures, fabulous countryside, divine music. Show us some pictures when you return home, both of you lovely ladies. Heck make that LOTS of pictures!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-942184 Sun, 26 May 2013 17:06:02 +0000 Kari 942184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Freckles, how fun! We are actually going to Ireland in approx. 2 months with a big group, so if you go it will be neat to compare notes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-941990 Sun, 26 May 2013 11:48:33 +0000 Freckles 941990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so very much for your wise input ladies.</p> <p>We`ve just started thinking about planning a trip after so many years of not travelling and I knew you ladies would be full of wise advice.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Although I`d love to do a Scotland and&nbsp;Ireland trip my health will only take so much and Ireland is the one true calling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-940580 Fri, 24 May 2013 05:20:01 +0000 Sheila 940580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FRECKLES!!! I am so excited for you! You will love Ireland no matter when you go...just don't go close to St. Patrick's Day...Everyone will tell you that the Irish do not celebrate it but that is a LIE! They have picked up on the holiday and now it is a really big deal, at least in the cities. I would assume that hotel prices and air fares would skyrocket during that time period.</p> <p>Oh my goodness I am so happy for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-940314 Fri, 24 May 2013 00:35:41 +0000 rebekahphoto 940314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>in September a few years ago I did a solo trip for 3 weeks across Uk/Ireland/Scotland it was lovely!&nbsp; Not too much rain. Dingle &amp; the Aran Islands were&nbsp; amazing</p> <p>if you like oysters the Galways oyster festival is Sept 26-29! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-939575 Thu, 23 May 2013 03:17:04 +0000 Carla 939575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH and I spent 2 weeks in Ireland in early April 2010, then crossed over to southern Wales, and England. (The Iceland volcano went off shortly after we arrived, but resolved before we went home at the end of the month.)</p> <p>April, like October, is shoulder season, and there really weren't any tourists. There was some sort of school break, so European families were travelling a bit. We got upgraded everywhere we went, and had great service. Folks were always super friendly and helpful, and we always felt very safe.</p> <p>One museum in a remote community wasn't open for their season yet, but I still got to explore the ruins on the site. </p> <p>We have been to the UK twice, and both times had remarkable weather...hot and sunny. The only clothes we never wore was our rain gear. I understand that this is not the norm!</p> <p>You will have a wonderful trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-939124 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:37:58 +0000 Freckles 939124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahhh...</p> <p>Thank you ladies, I hadn't thought of that.</p> <p>The one trip is the mid/end of August. &nbsp;It is a bus tour so we won't have many options on most things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-939079 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:31:46 +0000 rachylou 939079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a good point, Ornella, about the light.</p> <p>Because I'm cheap, I'd probably compensate by doing a food tour... map the trip out by restaurants... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ireland-visit#post-939048 Wed, 22 May 2013 18:21:35 +0000 Ornella 939048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>August.</p> <p>The days are longer which means you're able to see more.
