Hi Paul, as you probably know everything is more expensive during those months,but that's the time I usually go also.You cannot rent a car if you are over 75 and I believe they charge a little more if you are over 70.But you have plenty of young adults to take care of the driving.There are plenty of B&b's and if one cannot accomodate your whole party they will send you to someone they know who canCheck out the website www.bearatourism.com there is alot of info there.Don't forget to visit Bere IslandHave a blast, Jim.> Date: Sun, 21 Sep 2008 17:12:01 -0400> From: fpm60@embarqmail.com> To: Beara-L@rootsweb.com> Subject: [BEARA] Trip to Beara> > Hi, gentle Beara folk,> > I'm contemplating a possible trip of about 2 weeks to Ireland with my > family, up to 11 people (6 adults, 5 children ages 6-21).
