Nope, something wrong with their server by the looks of it as I can't access it either. Want info on Ireland? Check out ireland.com (pretty obvious). There are several nice places to go in Ireland outside of Dublin if you're looking for a relaxing time. I'd recommend Wexford (I've a house there),  Cork and Galway. But you can't beat Dublin! Dublin isn't exactly a tourist spot though either, as we don't have major attractions like you'd have in the states. Let me know what you;d be interested in and I'll give you some help ;)

I love Cork, but then again, that's where I'm from so I could be a little swayed ;)

Anyhow, if you want a non-tourist view of Ireland, check out Rick Steves. He's a travel guru who focuses on doing just that.

I've been to Ireland once.

It's such a great country. Friendly people, cool pubs and the landscape is just incredible.

In fact the only unfriendly person we met in Ireland was british O.o No offense to the british, though, all the other british guys we met were quite nice.

The only thing that still bugs me is that i didn't get to visit the "Q" in Dublin, it looked so cool from inside, but since we showed up as a group they didn't want to let us in :/

Well i guess we've been a sorta strange group anyways ... two germans, one french guy, one swiss guy and one guy from Iran :D We played pool instead in another pub and that was in fact cool enough ;)

Ireland is definately worth a visit for everyone. We've been fortunately since we stayed with a irish family there, and they showed us around a little. I guess i would have missed many astounding things without them.

Big P:
Aww. :'( Brings a tear to my eye. Q bar is indeed nice, but I like the Palace more. That has pool tables and plasma TVs and such. Plus it's not too expensive. €13 for a nice bottle of wine! :)

Anyway, Cork is a nice place. It's like Dublin, except it's a lot more laid back. The cork accent however is something you may not want to experience. Even I have trouble understanding some of the people! Hmm, have to drive down to Cork to bring back a friends new car shortly! 5 hour journey here we go! Sigh!
