Yes we have safely arrived! Since we are now navigating the streets of Dublin with road signs that appear in gaelic and english, the common irish gaelic greeting of
Dia dhaoibh seems very appropriate!

Flight was uneventful but tiring - none of us slept well but we stumbled through customs and managed to find our rental car at Dublin airport (though we had to upgrade to a roomier vehicle...sigh, $$$$). We were delighted that dad's GPS led us quickly and efficiently to our hotel - the Regency Hotel Dublin...we're stretched out in the hotel lounge now, waiting for our rooms and for Kim and family to arrive...internet is free here so am taking advantage while I can.
Girls are happy ....school out, in Ireland on a big adventure, and waiting for their cousin to arrive any minute! While they are biding their time in very modern pursuits during this bit of downtime (Nintendo, itouch), they are doing so in a lovely setting....
That's it for now...no sleep is catching up with me...will try to post more later when we have joined up with the whole crew.

Hooray for you Happy Canada Day to all of you. Enjoy your first day together!
Cheers!
Darn. Shauna beat me to the punch! We're just fighting traffic to meet she and M. Happy you arrived safe and sound and look forward to hearing about your adventures. Happy Canada Day!!
Oops. I forgot to say the previous post is from Steve, Jane + kids;-). Perils of sending from the bb.
Canada Day is winding down here -- did the parade, pool and fireworks here. Can't believe it's summer now. Glad you are there with a full two weeks of fun ahead. We are going for a quick overnight tomorrow to the cottage -- the pull of the lake is like the pull of the tides. Be thinking of my China Beach family. :(
Hello my world traveller friends! So happy to hear you are there and getting started on your adventures!! Did I mention how jealous I am?!!
We are heading to a cottage until Wednesday -- can't wait to catch up on posts when I get back.
Hugs to you all!!
