First, I have to say that Josh and I have been truly blessed by visitors during our stay so far in Ireland. The newest members to our list are Bruce, Georgia, Uncle Tom, and Aunt Lesca. Josh and I met the gang in Scotland. We toured beautiful villages, the Edinburgh Castle, and enjoyed breathtaking countryside. The highlight for the gentlemen was St. Andrew's Golf course, the home of golf.

| St. Andrew's Cathedral is Scotland's largest and most magnificent medieval church, it stands in ruins now. Andrew's has been a place of worship since 8th century AD. |

 |
| It was really cold on top of the castle. |
 |
| It was so rainy, these men were sliding down the rocky path. It was pretty funny! |

| Changing of the guards! |
 |
| At the castle, stunning! |

After having our fun in Scotland, everyone came to Ireland for a relaxing visit. We saw Blarney Castle and the surrounding gardens, toured Kinsale, completed a mini pub crawl, actually drove the Old Head grounds, and had tons of wine and good food.

 |
| Old Head is a very exclusive golf course, making it almost impossible to get pass the front gate. |
 |
| Wow! |
Josh and I are truly grateful! Thank you Tom, Lesca, Bruce and Georgia for such a wonderful visit!
