Well, if nothing goes wrong in the next half hour..I should have tickets and even travel insurance...with all the chaos etc. I thought it would be prudent. I leave out of Portland April 23, go to San Francisco and on to Dublin and then Shannon. I will only go to Dingle and then a day trip to Tralee. I would like to walk part of the way at least as my ancestors did...to the workhouse or the sea..and that folks is why we eat blue bacon to this day..with the little spots on it...would love to meet up with anyone there..I will probably be staying at a dormitory type of place..maybe one night in Garvey's farm house but I need to be quite frugal. Thank you IRS for a nice refund this year. mg

Sounds like a wonderful trip mg, I hear there's music to be found in the area. Enjoy!

Thanks. I am going to miss the Jeanie Johnston by one day..some of my relatives might have been on it but we are not sure. That is what Irish relatives told my second cousins. mg
