Would you go to Ireland if...
I just got offered an opportunity to go to Ireland on the cheap. Upfront it will cost me about $500. That money would include my train ride from Omaha to Chicago, direct flight to Ireland, my hotel fee, some of my meals, and several sight seeing trips paid for. This will cover a 10 day span.
The downside, I was just told about this last night and I would have to leave tomorrow morning. A few other things that are pros and cons(some could be both or either depending on who you are): 1. wife would not be going with me 2. I would be traveling with my wife's sister, brother in law, and two daughters(has a third daughter who backed out last minute hence the last minute offer). I would be bunking with the brother in law who I get a long just fine with. 3. The reason the family is going over there is the daughters are in dance group that will be performing in the St Paddy's day parade. I don't know how many other families are going but it will be several. The money really isn't an issue for me at all. I will have to take 8 days of paid time off but I have several weeks saved up. I still have to go in and ask my boss to find out if it is ok but she is usually really cool about stuff like this so I don't see an issue. Would you go? Edit: Forgot to mention, the wife can't take off last minute so she can't go. Last edited by BigRichard; 03-13-2018 at 06:33 AM.. |

My wife couldn't take off last minute from work and that is why it was offered to me otherwise yes. She is fine with me going.

Ireland's great. You should go. Stay out of Dublin as much as you can. When I was there I saw more Americans in Dublin than at a Chiefs tailgate.

"Uncle Big Richard went with us to watch us dance" might be some good family memories

Ireland is one of my favorite places in the World. You won’t find nicer group of people to drink Guinness with
Go! You won’t regret it!

I also need to know if I can get by wearing my shirt I just bought for St Paddy's Day here in Omaha
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Probably not the best idea with the crowd I am going with.

Women harbor resentment, if you go without her she will never let you live that down. Ever

Go, no doubt, you have a no resentment card since it's with her family. It's weird how that works. I can do anything with my brother-in-law and the wife don't care, but if it was my college buddies...
