Looking for recommendations for a week in Ireland. Wife and I have been before and done a lot of the big sites both in the city and the countryside, and partied it up in Dublin and Galway, but our group will be different this time because we surprised our moms with a trip later this summer. Background: The team will be 2 late fifty-something moms who are novice travelers and that have never been out of North America/the Caribbean, 2 mid thirty-somethings who are well-traveled and usually do the "airbnb in a neighborhood and pretend we live there for a a week" thing (prior to babby), and 1 one year old babby. Tentative plan is, by day: Land mid-AM at Dublin Airport. Rent van and drive to Cobh to Heritage Museum, buy the moms the "check your genealogy" package. AirBnb in Countryside around Cork, maybe on Wild Atlantic Way. Drive to Blarney Castle before tour buses arrive, then drive up to Galway along the coast. Spend evening in Galway, maybe look for a "Cook Irish Food" experience or something like that. Cliffs of Moher before buses arrive followed by lunch and an afternoon sheepdog/farming demonstration. Spend another evening in Galway Drive to Dublin. Stop at Tullamore Dew distillery en route. Check into AirBnB in central location in Dublin. Moms go to Riverdance show that evening while we return rental van and cab back into town. Kilmainham Gaol and St. Patricks/Christ Church/Both. Moms babysit while wife and I go out. Do the Guinness storehouse tour. Evening, find a place with live Irish musicians so the moms can experience that. Wake up and head to airport to fly home. So broadly, we'd be doing a clockwise circuit around the southern half of the island. Putting together an itinerary has been challenging because the moms are relatively non-adventurous while we prefer to go off the beaten path and have done most of the Ireland highlights before. The baby is the tiebreaker and we'll keep it simple and with a pretty open schedule. Overall, though, is there anything we're missing? Anything we should reconsider? Appreciate any help y'all can offer and thanks.

legit lol but nope. i was just a young man sitting on the stoop outside of the mcdonald's, trying to get you to sponsor my travel basketball team.

I worked at 111 W. Monroe for years and have walked by where you took that picture hundreds of times. /csb

Here to defend the Pilot SS. It's not like they became shitty tires overnight with the introduction of the 4S, and they're actually a really good bargain now that some places are closing out their stock. Signed, Guy who has Pilot SSs on his car (and who is post-purchase justifying :D) (Side note: Thanks to G650 for the note re carcass integrity and Twaron. I've never seen that attributed to Twaron, but it makes sense given that it's mostly marketed for keeping a larger contact patch under stress)
