I enjoyed reading your review Michael. I live in Brisbane and still have not been able to make it to the QLD Astrofest. Hopefully next year.
I was in Ireland for a month in 2005. We travelled around the country with some family who were living there at the time. Loved the country and the people were great. It was overcast for most of the trip, so astronomy wasn't really on the cards but we did get to see the Sun rise in Dundalk and set in Galway. On our visit to Inishmor we were lucky enough to have perfect weather while we cycled around the Island.
One of these days we will visit again.
