As Amy and I were just zipping up our last of five bags, we got a text message from Dana -- their initial flight on American had been cancelled the night before (thunderstorms or some such) and the airline had rerouted them through Dallas (that is, from Detroit to Dallas to La Guardia) with an arrival of 9:50 p.m., ten minutes before our Aerlingus flight left JFK. After some invective filled texts, and some ticket counter litigation, they managed to get on a flight direct to Newark, arriving at 5ish, plenty of time to make the several-legged bus transfer to JFK.
We all met up at the Aerlingus counter in JFK about two hours before departure and shuffled into the terminal, with a stop at Shannon's pub for a celebratory stout toast.
After sitting for an hour or so on the tarmac, we left the ground in New York, and were off.
i am looking forward to see ireland for the first time in my lifetime when i retire at 62 i am 54 now and i hope to see any family that could still be alive over there god willing?.
SO I am planning a 13 day trip to Ireland and Scottland at the same time. Have you been to Scottland? I want to go here for the scenic view and see as much green and castles as possible....but what else is there to do? And what pointers can you give me?
Ireland is a beautiful country. The irish people however do not like anybody or anyone.So leave soon but do remember to leave plenty of your Dollars behind.
I've been dreaming and saving for a trip to ireland for years. It's Nora Robets fault! I love her books and she discribes it so beautifully. I want to go alone but I'm sort of afraid to. How do I go about planning the whole thing?
I LOVE IT!!!!! ITS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE. I WISH I COULD GO AND MEET A HANDSOME MAN THERE, LOOKS VERY ROMANTIC PLACE. LOVE THE PICTURE, THANKS FOR SHARE THEM. I WANT TO GO!!!!!
My husband's family is from Cork Co., I bet he'd enjoy this. Anyone have any thoughts on travel there during Thanksgiving? (kids will be with step family, looking for something for just the two of us)
