Think no more we have taken care of that for you.  You want to visit the home of your ancestors. You may even get to meet family.  To have a really delicious Irish breakfast with brown bread & tea… yummy

More reasons to go..  You want to have a pint in Ireland just to see if it tastes better. Well, let me know when you return!  See if it really is that green and why it's called the Emerald Isle. There is a positive side to the rain! :-)  See if it really is that green and why it's called the Emerald Isle.

Thank you & enjoy your trip Don’t forget God made the Italians for their beauty, the French for their food, the Swedes for their intelligence, the Jews for their religion. And on & on until he looked at what he had created and said “ This is all fine but no one is having fun – I’ll have to make me an Irishman”
