Planning meeting for August bank holiday
We had a very productive planning session for the August bank holiday weekend trip. We determined a basic route and made reservations for our two overnight points. The route includes a 20 minute ferry crossing to experience something similar to what we'll have to do touring France next year. The wheels are now set in motion for the trip and more detailed arrangements will be made in the weeks ahead before D day.
The outline for the 3 days are:
Day 1 Saturday - Aug 2, 2008
391 km(243 mi) - 5h 26min
Leave from Dublin Saturday morning 08:00, heading for Killarney, stopping off in Youghal.
Day 2 Sunday - Aug 3, 2008
308 km (191 mi) 5h 12minDay 2 starts with a trip around the ring of Kerry, then up north towards the cliffs of Moher ending up in Coolin where we overnight again.
Day 3 Monday - Aug 4, 2008
283 km (176 mi) 3h 52 min
Head back to Dublin for some well needed rest before the normal workweek starts again.
