Eddie's going to Ireland

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

Finally, after a good six months of wanting to go back to Ireland I bought my tickets today. My friend and I will be coming to Ireland from the 8th of May til the 18th. A full 10 days of drinking and running around the country side on the wrong side of the road.

We have no plans really except to see a friend of mine and possibly swim in a meet with him, see Limerick where I did a semester in 93, drink, see some archaeological site, drink, see some castles, drink, see the Cliffs of Insanity, drink, see the Barren, hopefully get to Dublin, Cork and Belfast, drink, and if we have a chance get a Guniness.

I don’t know if there will be a chance to get together with dopers but who knows. I would however like to know the names of some good used bookstores, especially ones that deal with Irish and European archaeology. I have a few books that I know I would like to get and getting a head start would help.

Hopefully I will know more about what I plan on doing and the time in a few weeks so maybe we can get a couple of people to gether for a drink.

Well, we never say no to a drink.

Let us know closer to the time what your plans are and we will go from there :slight_smile:

Kal and I just returned from spending a week in Dublin. We had a fantastic time.

Definitely let the Irish Dopers know when you are coming and a bit more about your plans. They are an absolute BLAST to be with. Great bunch of peeps!!

We are looking forward to our next trip over.

Have fun!

Well I bought my tickets so I know that I’m coming over from the 8th to the 18th of May. I have one friend who I will be seeing at the swim meet and I just emailed the swim director today to see what I would have to do in order to swim there. I know that I will be seeing Cork, Co Kerry, Dublin and Galway areas. When I figure out a schedual I will post it, maybe some of us can get together for that drink.
