"Shannon to Dublin in Seven Days" a Ireland Travel Page by danmcf

Landed in Shannon early Monday morning, dropped our bags off in Ennis and was at the Cliffs of Moher before 11am.

Seven days later, we flew out of Dublin. Although we managed to visit many of the major 'tourist sites' along the way, there just wasn't enough time to see all that we wanted to.

The quick synopsis goes something like this:
B&B in Ennis, tour Cliffs of Moher & the Burren;

drive to Dingle via the Connar Pass, manage to do the Slea Head Drive, before an evening at the 'An Driochead Beag' Pub for theTrad Session & Craic;

The next day we were off to Blarney, via the Gap of Dunloe (where we scored a bottle of Poitín);

Rushed to Cobh (where we got stuck in a tiny traffic jam), did the Jameson tour in Middleton, before rushing off to the Rock of Cashel...

and a mad dash to Kilkenny. But we missed the last tour to the Kilkenny Castle and had to settle for dinner across the river.

Drove to Glendalough the next morning, and then a night in Kilkea Castle.

Arrived in Dublin early Saturday morning, but still didn't manage to see all that we wanted.
