Well we are back and recovering nicely. The trip was a great success and everyone had a wonderful time.
On Day 5 (after a rousing time in Scruffys the night before) we headed to Waterford and the Bhoys played a fundraising gig for the Solas Cancer Centre at Dooleys Hotel. The locals showed up to support the cause and we danced the night away. It was a great way to end the shows.
Day 6 saw us head to Dublin for a city tour and then a free afternoon to sightsee or shop depending on the mood. There were various groups split up for musical pub tours, walking tours and just a final evening of polishing off the trip.
Day 7 departure day for most and extended stays for others. Since we got back the e-mails and Facebook groups and comments have been flooding our in box saying what a wonderful time they had and can’t wait to go back. Great food, great hotels, great weather and of course great company. Lots of new friendships and plans to get together at the 2011 Irish Fair of Minnesota to see the Bhoys play.
