It feels good to be home!

Ate too much, drank too much, partied too much, but that was all planned in our Ireland trip! We got to the airport in Dublin around 8am yesterday, customs took forever, and plane didn't depart until 1pm. When we landed in Chicago 7.5 hrs later, people clapped as soon as the wheels touched down. I think those were the ones that were stranded in Europe due to the ashcloud. It was pretty interesting. Finally made it back to Omaha around 7pm cst, meaning that we were in the airport system at least 17 hours. What a long day!

What did I think of Ireland? Loved it! The food is great, people are super friendly towards Americans, pubs are great, and it is very beautiful there. Tons of things to see and do, we didn't even touch the surface with the nine days that we were there. Some of the cooler things that we did included the Temple Bar District in Dublin, Guinness Brewery, Cliffs of Moher, Bunratty Medieval castle dinner (very cool), stayed in the castle Ballynahinch, B&B in Galway, Trinity College and saw the Book of Kells there. I'm still sorting through all of the pictures, will post them up soon. Laundry time!
