Laura ...

I thought you were referring to Avoca, Co Wicklow, Ireland, the home of "The Meeting of the Waters" as made famous by Tom Moore's melody of the same name.

There is not in this wide world a valley so sweet
As that vale in whose bosom the wide waters meet
etc

or more recently, the home of Ballykissangel, the UK television program.

If you are ever there, Laura, I'll meet you in the Vale View Hotel.
