  I haven’t booked a flight yet. Hoping to get some sort of a fall sale in the next few weeks. I am trying to find a flight that can get me into Dublin earlier rather than later to spend the day checking things out.
  
  Who did you book with?

  That is a really good deal. Anything I am looking at is about double in price, so I am just going to sit it out and keep my eyes peeled for a seat sale. I am starting to get really excited! Are you going to head home once the tour is over or stick around for a few days?

  I have to head back home when the tour ends because of my work will only let me take a certain amount of days offs for vacation time.I will most likely be working the very next day.

  So what is your name and how old are you? So this way when our tour meets up I’ll know who you are?

  Hi everyone- I am going on this tour solo. I can’t wait! My friend had to cancel on another trip and this seemed like a great option.

  I can’t wait! Only about a month to go and the trip is booked full! I’ve been debating on if I should hire a chauffeur service at the airport to pick me up or if I should hut for a taxi when I arrive.

  Hey Sarina! Where are you from?
  
  I would just track down a taxi when you get there. What time and what day do you get in? I get into Dublin around 1 or so and I think I am just going to hope on a bus and get lost in downtown for the afternoon. It is the 250th Birthday of Guiness when we are in Dublin and there are sopposed to be some big celebrations going on when we get there! 3 weeks to go!

  I will arrive September 24 at 7am. I should be able to go to the hotel first to see if I can check-in yet, but probably not it will be so early in the day. So I will ask then if they can hold my bags. Then maybe I’ll go exploring and find something to eat,or if I want to spend the cash I can have to chauffeur service give me a tour of Dublin before dropping me off at the hotel. So many thing to think of before the trip…

  Hi again-
  I am from Reno, NV. I will be arriving a day before the tour starts (23rd at 11am). That’s great news about Guiness, I have to look into that! I was going to try and catch the hotel shuttle and if I can’t find that then get a cab. I am so excited!! Closer and closer <!--graemlin::)-->

  I will have mine with me, bur once I leave the US it will be off. I didn’t set up International Roaming. I figure a solid block of days without it might be a little welcome haha.
