Deciding What to See

ByTerri November 6, 2015October 22, 2015

When I started planning my trip to Ireland, the biggest question was what we should see. In my last post, I shared how I polled my Facebook friends to see what they thought. I could not believe the overwhelming response I got from everyone.

I compiled the information into a Numbers spreadsheet (I am a Mac Geek; Numbers is an alternative to Excel), with the following information:

Place to Visit
County Location
Website
Notes (used for hours or operation or what happened in that location)

I then quickly put everything in order by county because that was the easiest way for me to decide how we will travel through Ireland. Our list covers 44 items that I would like to see (though there are a few that are not on the list). My goal is to hopefully make it to see everything; but, if not I will have to visit again.
