Wasn't sure where to put this. What a silly silly girl. More and more people are choosing to holiday in this place but don't realise how seriously they frown upon this stuff.

And she was a law student!

Go fund me without telling the public what she did! Aye right

She's O'Brien and mother Mc Kenna.

Irish? 

Good looking girl - model type.

Not sure what she even did. Hard to do a Go Fund me with limited details about what happened.

I'm liking the zero tolerance on drugs there. Even in the bloodstream. No messing there.

Last day of our Irish adventure today:

Flew into Cork
5 nights outside Killarney
5 nights outside Baltimore
1 night in Druid's Glen
A week in Belfast
4 nights in Center Parcs
1 night in Blarney
Fly home out of Cork

The first half of the holiday by far the most enjoyable for me, West Cork a clear winner over Kerry, which is grossly unfair on Kerry considering how beautiful it is. West Cork in the summer is just utterly stunning though. There's a reason they go on about it so much. More should be made of Mizen Head, as the views are breathtaking.

We had "holiday fatigue" setting in shortly after getting to Belfast so am desperate to get home but kids had a blast the entire time. Can't bloody wait to get them to school on Monday and into routine (and more than 10 feet away from me)!

Some adventure. What was your accommodation type in Cork and Kerry Gallsman?

[gallsman]

Airbnb in one, Vrbo in the other. Paid an arm and a leg for both.

[JoG2]

Good man, I'd say so alright. We're looking to stay local next year and take the dogs... Freestate prices permitting

[Milltown Row2]

Camper van for us next year! With a view to buying one hopefully

[gallsman]

Free state prices nothing - the north is just as dear.

@gallsman - anywhere in  West Cork you would recommend staying/things to do?

I've never made it to  Cork. The sheer size of it  is daunting , and if you stayed in one spot for a week say  , you'd probably miss  out on seeing so much elsewhere. Or else you'd face a lot of driving  to try and see/do   as much as you can.

I've done a lot of holidays  where you try and cover as much as  possible , but end  up only skimming  the surface and not really  experiencing places properly , because everything nearly becomes like a  flying visit.
