Hi All - I am booked for a bucket list Ireland trip from 3/15/2023 - 3/25/2023. I've always wanted to go to Ireland for St. Paddy's Day and 2023 is the year!! My tentative plans are shown below

3/15 - Arrive in Shannon midday

3/15 - Drive to Doolin and spend the night at the pubs

3/16 - Head to Cliffs of Moher / Doolin Cliffs - weather permitting (explore Doolin and/or head to Galway if weather is bad). Galway for the night

3/17 - Galway St. Paddy's Day

3/18 - Galway

3/19 - Galway AM - Flight/ferry to Aran Islands

3/20 - Aran Islands

3/21 - Aran Island AM - Leave for ??

3/22-3/24 - Still researching

3/25 - Early AM Flight back to States

I would sure love for someone to help plan this trip and join me. Also - any recommendations for restaurants/pubs/off the beaten path ideas/fun things to-do/etc. - I would love to hear them. This is my first time to Ireland. I would much rather see the historic and real Ireland compared to the touristy spots. 

Thanks for all your help/input!

Matt
