Aran Islands are lovely, I actually went there for the first time last Summer, me and a few friends went to Inis Oirr for two nights, it is a beautiful Island. We sat out on the beach looking at the lights from the main land at night

Hmmm can't say I ever heard about the mullet peninsula before. Never been up in the North before either funnily enough. Soon though

If you do decide to come again, I hope you enjoy it. You came to Ennis the last time I think you said before? How did you find it?

It is. I was there in 2008 for one night. I went to Inishmore the year before. My pictures from the Arans are here.

I think I just like islands. I've been making a list of some to visit this time - Achill, Arainn Mhor, Inishmaan, Inishbofin or Inishturk, Rathlin, Toraigh. Obviously, I can't hit all of them, but maybe two or three?

The Mullet peninsula is in the northwest corner of County Mayo - I'm not really sure why I want to go there, but it sounds intriguing for some reason. Sort of the back end of nowhere.

I liked it. We were just there for a night, enroute between Dingle and Doolin. I have Scouting friends whose ancestors came from Cooraclare and Tuamgraney, so we routed through those towns to take some pictures for them, then headed up through Loop Head and the Burren the next day. Ennis was a nice, ordinary sort of small city, not touristy but just everyday Ireland. My Clare pictures are on this page.

It is official - I bought the tickets tonight. I'll be in Ireland for the last week in May and first week in June!

Ya I like that it is not touristy, we get a lot of tourists there but thankfully they don't try and make it touristy to attract them. I live in the middle of nowhere about 2O minutes from there.

I was in Achill too, I really, really like it there. I actually probably prefered it to Inis Oirr.

That is great! Hope you enjoy it as much this time around!
