"Fifty In Florence" and "Two Frenchmen In Ireland" Blogs

With two amazing trips planned for April/May come two more travel blogs...

After having re-connected with some of our high school friends during Covid, Amanda planned a 30-year high school reunion for our graduating class last year.  It was a huge success, and out of it a group of girls hatched a plan to go on a trip together to celebrate a milestone birthday year for all of them. (I won't say the number, but it sure is a NIFTY year!!)  Amanda's plan is to travel to Rome to meet up with a couple of the girls for a few days before the whole group meets in Florence for a week.  After that, her and one of the other girls are going to carry on to Spain for another week.  Her blog is called Fifty In Florence and can be found here, or in the side bar under Previous Adventures.

As for me, my dad has been hinting for the last few years that he would like to go to Ireland, as a bucket-list item he would like to check off.  We have finally managed to make that trip happen and will be leaving in ten days.  Our plan has us flying into Dublin (3 days), then travelling on to Dingle in the south-west corner (3 days), Doolin on the west coast (3 days), Belfast (4 days), and a quick trip over to Edinburgh, Scotland (3 days).  The blog is called Two Frenchmen In Ireland, and can be found here, or in the side bar under Previous Adventures.
