Awesome flight-- everyone happy and friendly, and it's not because we got free wine.  I kind of thought it was a joke when the pilot announced you could deplane from the front or the back.  But it wasn't.

Cool seeing Cory and Jody waiting for me.  I was so confused-- how did Cory meet that Irishman he is chatting with?  How did they discover they both have Michael Marrinan in common?  He is the guy we're to meet up with later on.  Man, we haven't even gotten out of the airport.

Lunch was a tad strange.  I didn't expect butter on a smoked salmon sandwich.    

C&J dropped me off at my B&B and headed down to theirs.  I took a shower, a short little nap, then went for a walk.  I can't believe they have signs encouraging and warning about walkers on the road.  It's so narrow and the cars go fast.  I'm walking towards the way I believe Kathy & Diane will arrive using the directions I sent them.  Then I decide to turn around and go down a road I had already passed.  And then K&D pull up-- they hadn't driven the way I had expected and they notice me on the road.  Ha!

K&D and I visited O'Conner's Pub tonight.  We only got in on the tail end of the music... need to call it an early night.  Food was very good, beer even better.   Met a guy in there that looked a lot like our dad, an Irishman from the Boston area traveling with his wife.  Funny, he even acted a bit like Dad.  I think we'll be coming back to this place:
