If flying from North America, the flight will likely be overnight arriving in Dublin the morning of Day1. The shuttle will take you to the resort. I plan on having a plan to adjust to the time zone changes, possibly including melatonin to try to get to sleep after dinner.
Upon leaving the resort back to the airport, we plan on renting a car to tour the southern part of the country for a few days. My surname in America came from near Cork. You can also easily reach the western side for some of the more famous links courses as well. Rumor has tee times maybe getting tight at places like Ballybunion. Then decide to return to Dublin or fly from Shannon. Going north from Dublin to Northern Ireland is also an option.
If not in Dublin on a Friday night, try to be in a smaller city to pub crawl with the locals. Just don’t drive back at the end of the night. The local gendarmes have a lower tolerance for impaired driving than in Wisconsin.
