"Can't go wrong with Donegal for walking and exploring and Wicklow is a very close second. " You know, I've never even been to Wicklow! Donegal is gorgeous alright. | |||
| |||

"Waterford - the greenway, tramore, copper coast, the city is grand ,dungarvan, KK isn't too far and the people are nice." Not one I would normally think of either  | |||

"I agree with Down and Antrim but I was assuming you wouldn't be crossing the border. " We're assuming so too! But sure we can hope | |||

"If any of ye coming to Cork need a Sherpa to show ye the sights, I stand ready. We have done mighty erections diwn here... Like the Elysian. " Thanks, I think! | |||

"Don't come to tipperary unless you only want to visit churches and do hill walking. We haven't much here really. Clare coast is great. Wexford not bad either." This and you could take a trip to Clare island one of the days if you go to Clare?  | |||

"Limerick for day trips too. Help us out haha I'm sick of Limerick , have two kids in UL"I wouldn't be recommending Limerick 
Plus I guessed you were talking about Sligo and Kerry for the incessant rain. Can't beat Killarney though in fairness ... rain, hail or snow | |||

"While I love to stay in Ireland, the cost of staying here is pretty ridiculous. Went to Kilkenny, Waterford and Kerry last summer fir a total of 5 days and came to around €1600.00 all together." Yep, but if that's what we have to do this summer, so be it. Can expect prices to rise exponentially this year as hospitality scrabbles to survive | |||

"Someone better say Leitrim or you know who will be upset Where? Oh I think I passed through once "I've done the whole Shannon by boat and the upper Shannon region is actually the most beautiful part of it. And hoping on the boat is most likely what I will do this summer.  | |||
