That's No Blarney....Post Views....19,597





         Angie and Mal are continuing their Ireland adventures.  They spent 3 days in Dublin....

                     Visited Dublin castle.....
















(Quite interesting)

When they left for Dublin Angie asked me to look up the city on Tripadvisor and find out things to do for free since her funds were running low.  I don't know how many free things there were listed to do but there was a total of 628 activities.....half of them pubs....


Rugby game...
Ireland vs Scotland....
Ireland won.... 




Red Carpet Event.....



They attended the red carpet opening of Trainwreck....

Angie was invited up to meet and talk with the actors...
Judd Apatow/Bill Hader
Vanessa Bayer/Amy Shuner
Autographs..
Exciting evening.....




From there they traveled on to Waterford.  
A bit of Medieval Royalty...
 



 Waterford is known for its crystal 












Time in Cork......The wonders of electronics.....

Gram G and Angie "face timing".....
(See the weird little me in the lower corner)
"Hi Grammie, I'm in Cork...."
And Grammie just took "our" picture....
And his.... 
 
 Transportation for man and dog..... cool picture...easy going....







Tea time....
Thinking of Bentley time..
Piggy Lady..
(Angie loves 
  piggies)
                                                Irish Instruments
   Castles.... Bus tours.....






Even found an Irish Rainbow.....no gold or leprechauns....

Or was there?

And a Bit of Blarney!!




The Stone of
ELOQUENCE....

Angie thought that kissing the Blarney Stone was for LUCK....

I thought it was for the 
Gift of Gab....

Angie was born with the gift of gab....

I use to think that if one were speaking imaginatively that one was 
full of bolony (bologna).....
perhaps that actually should be blarney.  



She now has the  
LUCKY GIFT OF ELOQUENT GAB




I sure hope Angie kissed that stone really good...enough for her and me, cause no way am I going to kiss that stone upside down....
And that's no Blarney....or is that no bolony?

This has been a good several "following Angie's travels" days in the life of Grandma G.

"Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth."  (Psalms 57:5)
