Beautiful by LWood2277

This place is incredibly beautiful. Book your car rental for the rings early as there is only one place to rent from and the sell out fast.

Ireland is amazing, Killarney in particular. Not only would I go back in a second I would even consider living there. It is such a cute small town, but has everything you really need in a town.

The bars are a blast, and people are extremely friendly, they absolutely love Americans.

  • travel.nytimes.com Introduction to Killarney by FROMMER'S November 20, 2006 Perhaps the busiest tourist hub in rural Ireland, Killarney's sidewalks are spacious enough in the winter, but in the summertime they're absolutely packed, as the streets become one giant tour bus traffic jam as horse-and-buggy drivers risk life and limb to push their way through. The locals are well practiced at dispensing a professional brand of Irish charm, even as they hike up the hotel and restaurant prices to capitalize on the hordes descending from the buses. It's all just a bit much for some people, and hardly the bucolic, gentle Ireland that many are looking for. Luckily, it's easy enough to resist Killarney's gravitational pull and spend your time exploring the quieter countryside around it. You can always sneak into town from time to time for dinner or a night out in the pub with lots of people from your home nation. (read article)
