We Made It!

Well we made it to Ireland! (The photo is of the Irish Sea. But I took it on my previous visit to Ireland.) We left Oklahoma City on Thursday afternoon and flew to Memphis. From there we flew overnight to Amsterdam. After a couple of hour layover we flew into Dublin. Gary Davidson was there to meet us and took us to our hotel. There is a 6 hour time difference from Oklahoma. (It's 6 hours later here in Ireland) So after not sleeping much last night, we decided to try to stay up until at least 10pm so we can acclimate to the jet lag quicker. We went out and walked to a cafe about a half mile from the hotel and enjoyed a simple meal. It's clear and chilly here tonight. (It's rare for the skies to be clear here. It's usually cloudy.) Back to the room, check facebook and e-mails and at 8:30 it seems unlikely that either of us will be awake at 10.

Tomorrow is the big "Passing of the Torch" ceremony. I'll talk more about that tomorrow.
