Ireland is oriented towards travelers, while in Spain some years before I had been advised it would cost me 'dear' to visit Ireland, it is reasonably priced especially compared to the area around London. Sometimes I felt the cost of a pint at the end of the day was the real tourist trap.

BIGGEST TOURIST TRAP IS TRYING TO OUT DRINK THE IRISH AT THERE OWN GAME WATCH FOR THE BEER THE LOCALS CALL THE BLACK GOLD.Hope you have heard of guninness the black gold.If you haven't then do the tour of the guinness factory in dublin it very interesting and here is why its in tourist traps and not places to see are you ready.They give out a free beer voucher at the start of the tour sounds pretty normal well think again alot of old people do this tour as well and they especially the ladys dont want the drink and so give away the free voucher to someone else .understand why i said tourist trap you can end up with free beer all day straight from the mother ship who ha.

Again, I paid too much for a picture while kissing the Blarney Stone. Can't remember exactly how much but I know it wasn't cheap and they mail the pic to you after 3 months with a card.

We didn't pay for this scenic spot ;)

You know when you are entering a tourist trap in Ireland (apart from in the cities) when you have to pay for a car park ;) It's easy to spot them like this ;-)

A Donegal page would not be complete without a picture of what causes the most traffic jams in Donegal......Sheep.
This was taken on a hill walk, and big mama was not happy with our presence.
