What is Tourism?

Its forty shades of green. Its leprechauns. It's the Norman glory of Bunratty. Its a load of Blarney. It's the meticulous scribing of a generation of monks all in front of you in Trinity. Its shamrocks. Its the puck fair, the Rose of Tralee. Its bogland. It's Patrick fasting for forty days and forty nights looking out upon Clew Bay for inspiration on how one would go about banishing snakes. Its debates about Guinness, Murphys and Beamish. Its the rebels, the sheepstealers, the tribesmen and the kingdom. Its top of the morning to ya. Its golfing. Its cliffs and beaches. Its horseracing. Its ballads and sean-nós.

Its craic. Its cead mile fáilte. Its magical.

...Its us.
