Just wanted to report that the trip to Ireland was wonderful! Perhaps we could post some pictures on our website (Jeanne, let me know what is reasonable to put up there, please.) For an itinerary of the places we visited, go to this link: http://www.cietours.com/affiliate/cietours/summary.rvlx?tourID=1663 The group, the driver, the people we met, all the sights--everything was fantastic. A really big highlight for me: The last full day there, my cousin Shannon, who lives in Paris, flew over to Dublin so that we could meet for the first time! We had found each other a couple of years ago, doing genealogy research on the internet, and have been corresponding via E-mail since then. She joined our group for the dinner and show at the Abbey Tavern, and then saw us off early the next morning when our bus left for the airport. It was a joy to meet a family member for the first time-- and in Ireland, from where our shared ancestor (third great-grandfather) came! Donna
