No, I'm not packed yet, lol.  This all came about rather suddenly, so I'm still looking at maps and places to visit.  I usually wait til the last minute to pack anyway.  That way I can travel light......Wink

We'll be in England the week of August 17. We fly to Dublin and have a week in Ireland, then fly into Bounemouth from Dublin.  Then back to Ireland for 3 more days. 

Are you already packed, Debbie?

We were in W. Ireland last time, so we're doing East this time.  Although next time I do want to do the Cliffs of Mohr, the Burren and the Ring of Kerry.  And last time we were in N. England, this time south.  The airfare between England and Ireland is ridiculously cheap, Debbie.  $158 round trip for 2 tickets!  And we're flying into Dublin this time instead of London because London's a bit pricey, but Dubin was only $600 round trip (each).  We had to jump on it.  The fares were higher in November - can you believe it?

You gotta get em whilst they're cheap.  And they're never that cheap in summer.

Right!  Cool and/or rainy weather will be a real treat for us.  But I'm not bringing an umbrella, so I'm planning for good weather. Cool

Very nice, Debbie.  I was going to spring for a new computer this year, but this trip came up, so it will have to wait.  I worked at home today on my work laptop and it's like night and day.  Enjoy it, Debbie.
