Gay, Proud & Irish

We’ve heard the story one too many times about how your dear old mum made you sing Mother Machree every year at the St. Patrick’s Day recital.  Imagine your poor brothers and sisters having to listen to you trying to hit those high notes at the end … “and God bless you and keep you, Mother Machree eeeeeee, ow!!”   Frankly we’ve had enough of your madness, but can you blame her, man?  She was just trying to make you connect with your roots and that she did, eh?

But what a thought, now, why haven’t you connected with them in the country of your heritage?  Do you know that Ireland has welcomed the gay community for over 1,000 years?  Why even one of the most famous authors of all time, Mr. Oscar Wilde himself, was Irish.

Well, now, let me tell you a little secret.  The Squire’s got the skivvy on a tour that’ll make you proud to be gay and in Ireland.  The people over at Adams & Butler Luxury Travel Experts are offering A Tour of Gay Ireland that is unlike anything heard since Liza sang New York, New York and got you on a Greyhound.

All you need is a bit more time since this is far and away much more than the standard tour but the payback is BIG!  Packing a whopper of an offering in 11 days, it will show you the Ireland of your dreams and will make your mum proud.

Here’s the goods, lad:

Day 1 – Arrive in Shannon and tour Kenmare (Killarney’s hipper neighbour) with magnificent views of Ireland’s countryside

Day 2 – the Ring of Kerry with lunch at an artists’ retreat called Cill Rialaig

Day 3 – west Cork, the gardens of Garnish Island and Bantry, Castletownsend and Kinsale
