There's a grand stretch in the evening out there!
Ah, an extra hour of daylight, or more realistically in Ireland, another hour of dull overcast skies.
But it beats travelling both to and from work in the dark.
So, now that we have this extra hour, we may as well go and make the most of it.
Here are some things to get out and do as Spring finally kicks in.
1. Tayto Park
We are NOW OPEN! 🎡🎢🎠

A hit with both friends and family alike, Tayto Park is now re-opened for the Spring.
Tayto Park has something for everyone. Thrill seekers can spend an adrenaline-filled day at the theme park and the animals lovers can admire the many mammals, birds and farmyard friends at the zoo.
The Meath-based park caters for school tours, Birthday parties, group bookings, corporate events and team building.
And if you're looking for a good way to exhaust the kids, look no further.

4. The lakes of Killarney, Muckross House and Torc Waterfall
There really is no place like Killarney, from its magical forests to picturesque lakes and blooming gardens.
A day spent at Muckross House, its surrounding gardens and lakes and the close by Torc Waterfall is the perfect way to spend the day.
Or if walking doesn't take your fancy, explore Killarney National Park by carriage in one of the many jaunting cars which operate each day.
And if you have a car, why not make the extra trip out to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle, and while you're there, try a deep fried Mars Bar!
Tough choice in Dingle: deep-fried Mars bar or Snickers. #InsightVacations #Ireland #heartfailure pic.twitter.com/pILxoR2C8n
