[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quotel=Anonymous]Can we please move on from OBX? And back to the original topic? I was enjoying it before.[/quote]

I thought Ireland was pretty lame. People talk it up so much I don't get it. Some one up thread said they hated Morocco. I loved it. One of my favorite trips.[/quote]

Tell me more about Ireland- why was it lame?  I wanted to plan a trip there.[/quote]

Depends on what you're looking for. As others pointed out, it's almost always wet to some degree, it's almost always overcast to some degree, food is indifferent and not reliable unless you do very, very careful research and are willing to go well out of your way to this or that restaurant. Dublin is small and provincial compared to, say, London or Paris and doesn't have the charms of Edinburgh or Prague or Munich. A lot of Ireland has a dreariness to it despite the very lovely countryside. Maybe it's the rain! I'd still happily go back because a part of me likes that misty gray weather, especially along the rugged west coast of Ireland. But if you're looking for interesting and different (or lots of) culture, you're not going to find that in Ireland. [/quote]
