Traveling: Part II

Goodmorning, Starshine! The Earth says hello!

Not even thinking of Charlie and all his chocolate could make me happy to be up for this flight at 7 in the morning. So our actual flight was around 11, and we had to get there early AND it was in Cleveland. HIP HIP HOORAY.

We get there, we check in, so on and so forth. And then we chill in the terminal for a bit. Also a delightful experience. I took pictures and enjoyed my time.


I think I should do parties, I managed to keep Makenna entertained!
And OFF we go! We flew from Cleveland to Toronto where we'd have a 9 hour layover. The only problem is, the airport didn't count on the Pender/Ginty clan coming on through.
A 9 hour layover, what to do... Oh yeah. We're Irish. We walked around for a bit then the inevitable sit down for who knows how many beers happened. And let me just say, my family was a wee bit sloshed. Dominic and Liam were legal in Toronto, the drinking age was nineteen. So they had at it and the "it" one. On the flight I was sitting next to a crewmate of Daniel O'Donnel's and I was pointing out my family as they ran to the bathrooms.

And I loved it how they were all sad that they didn't see Mr. O'Donnell because they were out of it. He was right by them! Silly family.
Here you can see the "I love you mom" stage.
Liam's favorite line was, "This can't be Ohio, I'm drunk right now!!!" I found it just really fantastic.
After the horrible flight abound with "food poisoning", we reached Dublin and met Sarah and Annie. Sarah is Annie's roomie and she drove us the whole time. Here you can see me behind a bit of the trunk that wouldn't fit over the bags. Annie's a sadist.
Annie and Sarah up front because they're the big girls.
IRELAND!

P.S. You know how you see pictures of places and the place is never like the pictures? Ireland is the exception.
