** I'm going to Ireland for a week. **

Mary Beth, you will absolutely love it.

My brothers and I rented a house near Killarney for several years and we each took our families over for a couple of weeks. All I can guarantee you is, after you go, you will be anxious to return. Really nice.

Re flight, no problem. It's long enough to go to sleep. Wake up, yer there.

Lovely people, happy to see you, clean streets, lovely country... congratulations. Great choice.

Guinness ain't too shabby, neither. And don't stay out of pubs if you don't feel like a Guinness. About half the folks in the local pubs are sipping lemonade or Coke.
