Thank you for the info in your reply, Pat. Can you advise on any open natural or historic sight on the 24-26 (Cliffs, Cashel, Etc.)?

I expect the visitor centre at Cliffs of Moher will be closed, but there should be access to the cliffs.
Caution if stormy weather as its dangerous at the cliffs.

Thank you once again ,Pat, for all your helpful info. With limited travel time and the possibilities of lots of closures, we have decided to visit either in early spring or mid fall. Thank you again.
