I Can Explain!

Okay, I know that I have been MIA for a while, but it has been very busy over here. Besides... there was a postal strike... What do you mean that doesn't effect email or online communications?! Sure it does! *shifts eyes back and forth in desperate hope that someone buys that*

Anyways...
Poor dad is still waiting to learn what bram brack is and I don't even have any time to go into major detail (basically it is a traditional bread with raisins, as well as candied lemon and orange peel that is traditionally eaten here for Halloween. There is a ring baked inside the brack and whoever gets the ring in their slice is fated to get married in the next year).

Yesterday was a blur of activity and today we were out for the day on a tour of County Wicklow. There are plenty of pictures, but I will have to get to those tomorrow. I have to get to bed so I can get up at a human hour tomorrow. After all, I am traveling to the end of the LUAS line to hug a total stranger. Ha! How's that for a teaser!
