Connemara is beautiful.
The Twelve Bens, or Twelve Pins (Irish: Na Beanna Beola), is a mountain range of sharp-peaked quartzite ranges located northeast of Roundstone in Connemara in the west of Ireland

These landscapes are all stunning. I can't wait until my UK/Ireland trip.

If you're going to Scotland, don't hesitate to ask, for help on things to see.

Honestly, love tourists that take their time, to come here & appreciate what we have..

I'll keep that in mind

I have relatives up there, so I can also get them to tell me all the cool things to see. Who needs travel agents when you have the internet and family!
I'm planning a month over June/July to do both. Probably not long enough, but hey, I don't have infinite funds and time!

June/July is the best time. You'll see the British Isles at it's best.

That's why I planned it for then

My mum suggested that I go during my summer holidays because they're longer...I told her that Scotland in January sounds like an Australian nightmare. She isn't from here, you see, and doesn't understand that we aren't used to the cold!
