We made it.
Except for the two of us who were detained due to the temporarily lost passport. To really experience jet lag means misery. Poor kids. We all felt deathly by the time we landed in Ireland and sat in the airport with Lewis Irvine, our EF Tour Guide. Smelly, sweaty, incredibly fatigued we were a sad lot; however, after a quick freshen up we felt somewhat better. Our first glimpse of Ireland did not disapppint. We did some shopping on O'Connell street, ate supper at a real pub, had a meeting and then the kids begged to be let go to bed! Hahahaha. Never thought I'd see the day. It was a challenging day. One of our girls lost her passport. She left it on the plane. Neither she nor I was allowed into the UK. Both of us prayed that passport was found on the flight we abandoned. It was! After the delay we just made it into the plane to Dublin. Later that afternoon another student left her wallet and purachases in a store. Luckily she retrieved that too. She was saved by a kindly shopkeeper. I was thinking to myself... what are the chances of that? Sigh. At least it ended well! We are leaning about the politics of the Republic of Ireland. It's
London Heathrow
Keeper of the suitcases extremely interesting. The kids are having a blast. Now I know why I did this. Enjoy the pictures. The Irish are lovely, and friendly people. Even if they do mistake us for Americans.
