Thanks Tree- Almost positive we will hit Galway on the back end of our trip, so I left it off the front part. I had looked into the oyster farm tours but the 2 that I found looked booked up already for late May... hopefully something opens up. Also considering mussel farming or seaweed harvest tours.

Thanks Papi
I have left off Galway on this front end itinerary because there is a good chance that we will go to Galway on the back end of the trip (Business part) when we will also do Dublin. We may end up doing the Cliffs of Moher- we will need to see things work out.
My updated "penciled- in" itinerary is
Day 1 Trim (just to get out of Dublin to get a nights rest)
Day 2 Dunfanaghy, Co. Donegal
Day 3 Dunfanaghy
Day 4 Donegal Town
Day 5 Westport
Day 6 Westport
Day 7 Quin (just need a place half way between Westport and Dingle)
Day8 Dingle
Day9 Dingle
Day10 Dingle
Day 11 Either somewhere in Cork or Kilkenny area...?
Day 12-16 Business part of the trip (Dublin and likely back out west to Galway)

Thanks Lemmy- I added Kylemore Abbey to the list
Thanks- we have a few days at the end of the business part of the trip that we may try to run up to Northern Ireland. I appreciate the tips. So far I have booked a little mix of airbnb and B&B's ...I'm hearing that Airbnb (vacation rental types) may be facing some government restrictions in Ireland?

is that near Rosse’s point?
I have some Marriott, mostly Hyatt though
Thanks again- good info
Thanks/ I may add in Ashford Castke or at least Cong.

Yet, you're wasting time flying into Dublin instead of Shannon (SNN.)
We have to be back in Dublin to end the trip for business reasons, so that’s why Dublin makes sense for us.
My rationale for listing cities/towns rather than attractions/ sites is because I want a good place to land, park the car and hit a restaurant and pub. So I guess my viewpoint is that I put almost as much into where we stay the night than I do for what we see during the day.
I figured there is more to see in Galway than just the Cliffs of Moher…. we might pivot and see them it’s just not a big priority especially if we see Slieve league etc
Good car / driving tips! Thank you

Ireland Travel experts- i need some advice on an Itinerary

Self Driving Itinerary ---Open to suggestions. It's pretty mind boggling to plan. Not big into large touristy towns, prefer smaller villages with great pubs and some decent restaurant options. Small town feel. We plan to do lots of hiking and covering lots of ground. We are thinking that we will skip the Cliffs of Moher and take more time in Donegal and Slieve League, etc. We have 4 days after these days above that we will explore Galway and/or Dublin. Late May
1. Arrive in Dublin, rent car and drive to Trim (45 min)
2. Letterkenny or somewhere in Donegal (Donegal Town?)
3. Letterkenny or somewhere in Donegal (Donegal Town?)
4. Sligo (or a small town near by)
5. Sligo (or small town near by)
6. Westport or Clifden or Roundstone or similar
7. Westport or Clifden or Roundstone or similar
8. Dingle
9. Dingle
10. Dingle
11. Clonakilty, Cork (or similar)
12. Dublin
TIA!

yea- I dont have much issue with it. I understand he was ticked off and frustrated. Kelly is the real problem.

Blame should be on Kelly. Crappy play calling, delaying giving MVB a chance much earlier, got beat in all 3 phases of the game. BK should take the blame

Kelly sucks for sure

Van Buren should have had a planned one series in the ole miss game just to see how he does and change up things
re: Video of Kelly sending in Van Buren. Nuss not happy.
Posted by Tigershat on 10/26/25 at 10:35 am to BigNastyTiger417
at least give Van buren a series earlier for a change of pace

Then Van Buren performs well.

Thank y'all for the tips!
Suggestions for Paso Robles and surrounding area?
Posted by Tigershat on 9/23/25 at 5:50 pm
Looking to head to Paso Robles for a few nights in early November and looking for suggestions. It has been a long time since we have been through there, so we are not super familiar with it.
Any suggestions for nice places to stay? Best to stay out at a winery or stay in town close to walking to restaurants, bars, breweries, etc.
We plan to hit some winery tours etc one day, then likely hike in Pinnacles one day, but open for other suggestion for activities.
TIA

Thanks for sharing that- unbelievable trauma for those folks.
Yes- I left that part off the OP. I believe they were in an RV park near Kerrville.
