It’s lovely so far. There are flowers everywhere. We’ve seen the Book of Kells and Christchurch Cathedral and had dinner with friends and been to pubs. It’s a whole thing and we’re here for it. Hope your week is going well, too. More updates when I can remember to do them.
You both look so happy. That’s a wonderful picture.
I loved the flowers hanging everywhere in Ireland when I was there two years ago. They are cheery, and just add so much to the charm.
Oh, look at you two cute kids. Hope you have a great time.
I was on a tour there with my chorus in May. We sang at Christchurch (among other places). Everywhere we went, the rhododendrons were in riotous bloom. Kinda jealous of you for being there now, with or without Worldcon.
What a cute couple. I hope you kids have a great time but I’m sure the scamperbeasts are missing you.
Enjoy your stay in what was, for years, my home!
Hope you’re having a great time, it certainly looks like it. We’re spending our time with the friendly neighbors up north.
I see you picked up another hot lookin’ lady at the airport again…
We took a bus tour down to Kilkenny and back up through the Wicklow Gap today. Now waiting for our dinner at Yamamori.
We did Trinity College back in 2014 when we followed the crowd from Loncon to Eurocon.
Have a wonderful time! Wish I was there…
Lovely photo of the two of you. You look so peaceful and happy.
Love love love Ireland! See it all! Do it all! Never want to leave it!
Dublin looks lovely, and you look thin!
Just heard about some out-of-this-world competition for your dj gig:
ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano will perform a dj set from the International Space Station next Tuesday, which will be beamed to someplace in Ibiza, becoming the first dj in space: https://www.euronews.com/2019/08/13/astronaut-luca-parmitano-will-play-a-dj-set-from-space-for-an-electronic-music-cruise-in-i

You are a lucky fella…
But I think you already know that.
The Guinness brewery tour is well worth the time. Even if you don’t actually like the stuff the history is great and the rooftop bar (1 pint maximum unfortunately) has spectacular views over the city.
I guess I need to check your Twitter feed before posting. Was the view good?
I sounds like you are abandoning your virtual relations and focusing on your real-world relationships. Hmm. That must be something normal people do. Maybe I need to try that.
