Cork to Dublin and back is a very long day on the road especially if you've never driven on the left side. Cork-Dublin by train takes 2h 45min, and you'd have far fewer traffic hassles. (The Celtic Tiger may have mellowed into a Celtic wild-cat, but some of the effects are still to be seen on the r...
