Pictures from my trip!!












































Christ Church






(the people in Ireland were always in a hurry. We are just reenacting a true event that happened to Heather)

I finally got pictures from my trip on my blog. A big shout out to Heather for letting me steal hers...my purse was stolen and my camera was in it. It makes me sad thinking about it, but then I DID get to go to Ireland.
I tried putting most of the pics in order. We spent two days in London. The pictures of us on the bench are in Hyde Park. There was a marker on it that said something about a couple "recalling many happy hours". So, we were recalling ours. We went to Buckingham and Kensington Palace. We rode the Tube a lot. The picture of the three of us with the Tube workers is a funny story. We were trying to find Buckingham Palace. The guy in the middle of the picture noticed that we looked confused, so he helped us out. His name is Mark. When we got back and were trying to find which subway we needed to take to get someplace else, Mark was there to help again. So, we asked to have our picture taken with him. Well, his co-worker thought that was really funny and asked, "Well, if you want a picture with Marks, we can do that, so he called over another Tube worker named Mark!" They were really nice.

We took the Eurostar to Paris and saw The Eiffel Tower and went to the Louvre to see Venus De Milo and Mona Lisa....amazing!! We grabbed something to eat while at the Louvre. The guy helping me with my order told me that I was beautiful and asked me to come back to get him, so we went back and got our picture taken together. He told my sisters that I was his wife. Cute.


We then took a ferry from Wales to Ireland. It was pretty cool. We went to Rosslare, Cork (tried driving in Cork, but was unsuccessful..as the picture shows!), Kissed the Blarney Stone, Killarney (one of my favs), Limerick, Galway (another fav), Muckross House, Guinness Brewery, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Christ Church, and Dublin. Of course, there is much more to say, but this is already a super long post and if you made it this far, kudos!! The trip was fantastic and I LOVED being with my sisters. We laughed almost everyday and had a great time. I would go with them again!
