June 8 – Here we are in Ireland

After a shaky start with a late bus to O’Hare, we got thru TSA and were able to relax in the Lounge before our flight to Dublin. Our Flight was perfect and we both got some sleep.

Once we got thru Passport Control and Customs, we took a taxi to the Dublin Train Station. The train left on time but we were delayed because of track work. We finally got to Limerick and were met by Robert from Wild Atlantic Music Tours. He drove us to Ennis and we checked in to our hotel. Did a quick tidy up and went to Considines Pub for a portion of the session with Blackie O’Connell. I had a great time even though I was tired from traveling. Nothing like a few traditional tunes to perk you up. Ennis is a wonderful town and everything we expected and more.

Had dinner at the pub in the hotel and tried to stay up as long as we could.

We are heading to Kerry tomorrow. More then.
