back from Ireland
Hi everyone,
I just got in last night and hope to find the energy to post some pics soon. What a crazy but fun week. I saw a ton of stuff in 8 days!!! For anyone that's ever been there it was exhausting!

Glad to have you back Michelle. Travelling is always tiring, especially with the 15 hour long haul across the pond. Hope you were in a 777. The little TV's in the headrest are nice and if you get a middle aisle seat you can push up some armrests and sleep across a few seats.
Doug was right about Bud and lemon. Last trip to Belfast everyone was drinking that with perfectly good taps full of Harp and Guiness right there.
We are dying to see pics

It is time for pics. You've had more than enough time to recover.

Exactly. Sorry. Been working myself to the bone at the vet clinic. Here are some pics that I have so far. Have to get the CD of Janet's pics as well. She has some nice ones. Most of these are from the west side of ireland near Dingle, Killarney, and Galway. One from the Guinness factory in Dublin as well.
