Wow!

Well we made it! We arrived in Dublin after many, many hours of chaotic travel. The air travel was a unique experience. The cramped quarters made for a rough ride. I managed to break my seat during the flight from Dallas to New York--- Yikes! They certainly do not make planes in my size!

Speaking of extra-large------ We will need to post a picture of Kim's bag. I feel very sure that she secretly smuggled Pat into the country via her extra large luggage. I can't tell you all how much fun we had once we were assigned a room on the third floor. After it was hauled up the broken escalators at JFK, as we were boarding the bus from the airport, the porter (bus driver)
looked at our Mrs. Piper and exclaimed:
Jaaaaaazzzzzuuuusss Chriiiiiiist (Dublin for Jesus Christ) woman! You need to pack smaller knickers ------ or don't pack any knickers at all!
Although our bus driver did not qualify as a poet laureate, his sentiment was indeed, shared by all!

We are running (by running I mean slowly and lazily) making our way back to the hotel for some much needed sleep! We will all post again very soon!
