The week before...

So we've got a week before we leave for Ireland. To those of you that don't know what we're doing... we are going to Ireland for about 4-6 months. Thanks to Delta skymiles and some Delta bucks ticket vouchers, we were able to get round trip international tickets for next to nothing. As many of you know Michael's dad is from Ireland and because of that Michael has an Irish passport. That will let us get jobs in Ireland. Michael still has a lot of family in Ireland and they are what is going to make this trip possible. His uncle Tadhg & aunt Helena have graciously offered to take us into their homes. We plan to both get jobs in Dublin, visit with all the family, travel around Ireland and possibly elsewhere in Europe while we're gone. Not that we think everyone we know will just be dying to know what we're up to everyday... but we will be posting pictures and short notes about what we are doing.
