I'm leaving work in an hour to go home then to the airport for 10 days in the Emerald Isle. We'll be driving around and staying at B&B's and a castle. I'm excited, I've never been and haven't been to Europe in 10 years. My gf's uncle does advertising for Guinness, so we'll be getting a VIP tour of the brewery (whatever that means). :D

I might pop online once we get to Dublin and I find some WiFi access and post some pics.

I know you'll all miss me. ;)

Have fun. I did a similar trip almost 3 years ago. Of all the places I've been in Europe...I had the most fun by far in Ireland. Good luck...and take plenty of pics.

For what it is worth, I would stay out of Dublin as long as you can. the rest of Ireland is soooo much more interesting (although Dublin is interesting and fun). The people are great everywhere though and the beer is always awesome.

The brewery's pretty cool. Has a nice view of the city at the top (The free pint of Guinness didn't hurt either). 'course, there ain't much to see in the city, but it's still a nice view nonetheless.

Make sure you read the sign on the door so you know how to spell it next time ;)

Our last 2 nights are in Dublin (returning from there), the rest of the trip is open ended.

Wha? ;)
Definitely looking forward to the beer. And whiskey. :D Next trip is going to be to Belgium. Between their food & beer, I may never come back.

Shens. Nobody from the UK would fail to put an apostrophe between the u and the r in this context.

Thanks grammar Nazi. I always thought it was "you're", so you're saying it's "You'r"?
