Cliffs of Moher...absolutely breathtaking

Loosely translated...that's Irish for "I'm back"!  We are home from Scotland/Ireland and had the best time!  Above is just one of the 850 pictures we took....don't you just love digital cameras????  
(Don't worry....I won't post them all!)  

The weather was absolutely perfect the entire trip, we enjoyed great food and Guinness, and we met some wonderful people, including another couple from South Carolina.....small world!

I saw some wonderful samplers and needlework in some of the museums we visited, but was pleasantly surprised to see this hanging in one of the pubs we visited while driving the Ring of Kerry....

At the The Moorings in Portmagee....

the best seafood chowder!

 Thanks to the long plane trip I did get to do a little stitching and finished this along the way....

LK "Wanted" stitched on 18ct aida w/DMC

I had started this last month and it was perfect since it was an easy stitch.  I was able to finish it going and will add to the finishing pile.  I had kitted another one of the LK Santas, "Here Comes Santa Claus", and was able to get a lot done on the return trip.  Hopefully it will be finished this weekend.
