Ireland itinerary

We'll start out in Dublin, Ireland's capital. While there we plan to go on the Guiness tour as well as see the parliment building, etc. We'll then head towards Kilkenny. We're staying in a country manor. I'm really looking forward to this as it will be more like the "real Ireland." Big cities like Dublin are always fun, but they never seem to really reflect the history and culture of the people. After Kilkenny, we head towards Cork, then Killarney, where we'll see Killarny Castle, then Galway and then finally visit various small towns along the west coast. We're hoping to spend a day in the Ring of Kerry. It is supposed to be wild and beautiful. I can't wait! (The map is from http://www.destination360.com/europe/ireland/map.php.)
