The Journey: Kissing the Blarney stone!

Leaving Swansea for Cork by overnight ferry on the evening of Wednesday 29th September 2010, teams will have a chance to kiss the Blarney stone before heading west through superb countryside to the rugged Atlantic coast and the famed Ring of Kerry, finishing the first day at Killarney in time for a ceilidh. Day two takes teams back to the stunning coastline featured in "Ryan’s Daughter", crossing the Shannon and hugging the coast with its magnificent 700 ft high Cliffs of Moher, before spending an atmospheric night in wonderful Galway. The final day takes teams south of Lough Derg and the run-in to Dublin for the final night party at the shrine of Guinness. Teams will return to Wales via Holyhead on the morning of Sunday 3rd October.
