Sure and begorrah, it is time to give an update on the trip to Ireland as it is only a little over 2 and 1/2 months away. Refer to my post on 1/15/09 I Have Eyes for Ireland, and I'm Smiling. In that post I speculated on the best way to make use of the exchange rate.
My bonnie lass and I have already paid for approximately 1/2 of the vacation including airline tickets, rental car, 4 nights' hotel stay in Dublin, and a few bed and breakfast establishment deposits. Also, much to my delight I bought roughly 1/2 of the Euros we will need last January.
