Polish Visit Part 1 - Nesting and a Fish Market

Little Background: Vickie and Trysh are sisters and I have known them since we were all 8 years old. We went to elementary, middle and high school together. We've been friends for 20+ years so it was pretty incredible to have them here in Dublin. Vickie, Pete and their 1 1/2 year old Reese, are living in Izmir, Turkey for 2 years while Vickie works there. Trysh and Luna (2 1/2) have been living in Costa Rica and came to stay with Vickie and Pete, 5 weeks ago. And this week, they all descended on Dublin and we had a great time (despite the downpours and the flu.....see last post).

 Guest Suite - Prior to Guests' Arrival:
 First morning after they arrived, we walked very briskly, through "Dublin Downpour 2012" (which, by the way, arrived just for our guests) to a coffee shop in Monkstown.

 And the Hulk was there too (behind Trysh's shoulder)

Real Turkish Delight brought from Turkey!


 The whole visit, Wayne was known as "The Baby Whisperer". He is truly Dr. Doolittle when it comes to babies.

 Beautiful Analuna







Then we took them to the tiny Fish Market across the road from our house to buy some fish and show them the seals!

The people at the fish market were nice enough to give us a bucket of scraps and fish to feed him.
