A New Beginning

After a blessing from my mother and her and my sister crying, I proceeded to have the longest trip I have ever taken. I believe I spent a total of 13 hours either on a plane or waiting in an airport. However, I made it across the puddle and have settled in quite nicely. I am living with a guy from Rome and another from the Ukraine. Both seem to be very nice and have introduced me to a number of people that they had just recently met. The first night I was in town, we went over to a couple of Germans and another Italians apartment for an authentic Italian meal. Which in all truthfulness, it was the Italians first real try at cooking but it didn't turn out too bad after a phone call to his mother. My contribution to the supper was two bottles of wine which was not nearly enough for the number that we had in attendance. Thus far things are great other than Dublin being VERY EXPENSIVE. I may starve because food is not cheap and niether is alcohol. I am going to try to get some better pictures up in the near future. (If you are wondering where the girls are, I am sitting next to them and didn't get any good pictures with them.)
