From Dublin, via York


Well, we lost a post somewhere in there. It was up briefly, but when we tried to add a picture it went away!? The post was from York to tell you how lovely it was there. The Minster (big cathedral) is amazing. We drove to Manchester that evening and stayed at a hotel near the airport in order to catch our flight to Dublin. We've been here two days are are on the way to pick up a rental car and drive out to our castle rooms for a stay in the Irish countryside before catching a plane to Stockholm tomorrow am (Friday). Pretty much everyone here says to get out of Dublin to see Ireland. Poor Don has to keep up the wrong-side driving though.

A note to let those who send comments know -- we are the only ones who will see your name. All the public sees is how many comments have been posted. So it's okay to post as "other" rather than anonymous. Or put your name with your post, because otherwise we don't have any way but guessing to know who the comments are from. And by the way, we love getting them. It's very cheering to know the blog is being read.

KRL - I'm sending a postcard. Keep an eye out in a week or two. ~K

Don't forget to kiss the blarney stone (ehw...), actually I would support admiring the countryside and looking at flocks of sheep against the emerald isle background. Don't forget to sit back and enjoy in all the scurrying about.

I'm getting exhausted just reading about your travels! You'll need a vacation from your vacation when you get back!:) Hope things will slow down once you're camping.

Had any good Guinnes when you were in Ireland? No trip to Scotland, eh? Oh, well... Then you probably missed seeing any tennis-playing blanc manges :)

I've always wanted to visit Ireland and now I can live vicariously through you. You all look tired but happy. I'm glad to know you're enjoying yourselves. I might start a betting pool on whether you make it into work on Nov. 1st :-).
