Hi PaigeyPoo and Tig and whoever else is here.
We're having a good, but busy, trip. Lots going on.
We arrived in Dublin last Friday, the 14th. We spent that first weekend up in Belfast (which is in Northern Ireland, our first time to do any work up there), taking part in a concert put on by a group called New Irish Arts. That was a lot of fun, and we stayed in the home of a friend we met at the conference we went to in the Czech Republic last April.
We came back to Dublin on Monday, and we've been here since, meeting people and doing a couple of workshops over the weekend. We have more meetings this week, then on Thursday we leave for a road trip. We're doing workshops in Cork, Kerry, and Shannon, and then we'll be back to Dublin for one more week or so.
I really love it here. I can't wait till we're able to make our move and live here full time. We're starting to build a real base of friends here in Dublin, which is so nice. We've had an unexpected bonus in that a missionary couple we've gotten to be close friends with who had been living in Germany have now moved here to Dublin, and we're all tickled that we'll be seeing each other so much more.
