Fáilte, Welcome to Ireland

May the road rise up to meet you










May the wind be always at your back







May the sun shine warm upon your face





And the rains fall soft upon your fields













'til we meet again





May God hold you in His hands












It felt as though an Irish blessing bestowed upon me in my travels to Ireland with my mother and aunt. We traveled the countryside, navigated Dublin traffic, sailed a ferry, walked in the rain, ate by candlelight, listened to a jig, laughed like children, and slept like queens. Every person we encountered was friendly, generous, and kind.

Slán go fóill

Goodbye for now Ireland.
I will return.
