Sliante!
Sadness is sweeping over us. Our love affair with Ireland is coming to an end. We have two more days in this stunning land. Our tour has been awesome. The people have been really great. They have been so great that we have become zombies because of the lack of sleep.
We have been around the entire coast line. The scenery can not be described, truly amazing. We had some amazing days at the Blarney Castle and Kinsale. Our livers can not handle the Irish custom of drinking. Apparently, they don't discriminate on what day to drink... and as we were told, Sunday is a part of the week-end.
The people are amazingly friendly, and outstandingly witty. Our tour guide, Joseph, is hilarious. Ohhh, and according to one American... He had Shannon figured out to be Irish, because she is too pasty to be Canadian.
Luckily, the Blarney Castle attendent didn't drop us... and we smooched the crap out of that stone, by far the best kiss we had in Ireland. And, it sure didn't bother us that the cute male attendent held on tight as we laid backwards over the castle. Joseph also joked that he may grab a feel when we were petrified and we wouldn't even notice. I am sure he didn't.
It is our last night on the tour tonight.. Jackie is going to sing some Karokee. Shannon is not. (Jackie says no also). Umm, we miss you all, but we decided that we aren't leaving.. Mom can you send some money over? Just kidding, very excited to see you all... but miss Ireland already.
Please remember to pick us up at the airport, this will probably be our last message.
Cheers!

Fabulous Trip!
I am also sorry that your trip has come to an end. I enjoyed it immensely. It made me homesick for some of those places. See you soon, Laura V.
