Hello All!

Thank you for helping our dream vacation to Ireland become a reality! We decided to register for a vacation over the more traditional options not only because we have each collected several apartments worth of stuff over the years but because the world is awesome and we want to see as much of it as possible.

Michael and Emily

We're going to County Clare!

Our plan is fly into Dublin, rent a car and drive two and half hours to a small town in County Clare. We'll rent a small, stone cottage for 10 days. Evenings we'll curl up in front of our fireplace or walk into town to enjoy a pint in the pub. Days we'll hike the nearby area or take a drive through the countryside. We hope to relax, explore and perfect our Irish accents.

Dining Out - Each region has its own specialties, some handed down for centuries. We'll certainly be looking for great dinning outdoors with a view -- hopefully of a historic church or castle.
