1. Er - what's the question?
The one you've liked the best?
The one you'd most like to visit?
The one you'd most like to live in?
The one you like the people from the most?

12. Nice penninsula
Didn't get to see much of the town, tho...over-run with tourists for the regatta!
One of my favorite pictures is of the area going toward Dingle from the strand at Inch.

16. Yeah, lots of folks go to see that poor dolphin Fungy
But there are some beautiful places along the beach in the outer bay.
And a real cool hostel on the road to Inch.

8. Interesting that Belfast has more votes than Dublin.
:shrug:

In Dublin's fair city
Where the girls are so pretty
I first set eyes on sweet Molly Malone...

9. Belfast..
Look outside, summer's lost and gone
It's a long walk on a street of right and wrong
In every inch of sadness
Rocks and tanks go hand in hand with madness
But I never saw a braver place
Belfast

15. I haven't been yet...
Hope to make it in 2005. I would spend time
in Tuam and Abbeyknockmoy, for certain. I'd hope Dublin as well - then a week in Scotland.
