Today, Saturday January 28th, some of my best friends on earth, arrive in Dublin!! Vickie and Trysh are sisters and we've all been friends since we were 8. (and they're Polish, hence the title) Also arriving are Vickie's husband Pete - the male Martha Stewart and mountain biker extraordinaire. And with them, baby Reese (Vickie and Pete's 1 1/2 year old) and Luna (Trysh's 2 1/2 year old). Suffice to say, our 750 square foot apartment is about to get a lot more interesting. =) We can't wait. Yes, it'll be cramped but cramped in the best way on earth - with some of the people I love most. We can't wait to have coffee in the morning, walk around Dun Laoghaire with them, show them Dublin and generally 'bring them into our new universe'.
This will be us, sans Tara, and in Dublin. =) Imagine it. (Tara, we'll pretend you're with us)
We plan to see all the sights - the Guinness Brewery, some museums, some pubs, our favorite coffee shops and maybe rent a car for a day or two. Many posts to come but I thought I'd share that THEY'RE COMING!
Also, (I feel awful about this) they're coming from Izmir, Turkey (where Vickie, Pete & Reese are living for 2 years, Trysh/Luna are visiting them). Well, May-June there are direct flights from Dublin to Izmir (lucky for us in June). Unfortunately, July though April, it takes 3 separate flights to get here so they have a long day of flying today. We wish you safe and peaceful travels with the two little ones. Hurry up!!
My sister Sarah told me wisely (she lived in Spain and Alaska for two long stints): "You might be surprised at just
how excited you'll be to see familiar faces". I think this is right on the money. We'll see if I break into the ugly-cry when I see them. =)
