I have more pleasant memories of Ireland. For lunch one day I bought a sandwich and a bottle of wine for 5 euros (the wine was cheaper than the sandwich), and drank by the gorgeous Irish sea. Drank endless guiness at a pub northern Ireland. Explored the giants causeway, cliffs of moher, ring of kerry, and the powerscourt gardens all in 5 days.
The countryside is absolutely stunning, and needs to be explore without being constrained by a tour bus.
However, I really want to explore Scotland more. I'm currently saving up for a trip to the UK with a diving tour in Scapa Flow. You can dive down to see the German surface fleet that was scuttled by a defiant German admiral after the end of WWI.
