Staying with the relaxation theme… Today was a nice day of beer and fun with some great friends. The pooch enjoyed dropping me off today.

Amazing day of relaxation! We woke up late, enjoyed some coffee and then our personal trainer stopped by to give us an Easter egg with a discount in it. 🙂 Then she talked us into going to lunch at Rodizio, a Brazilian steakhouse. Yum!

We then all went to the dog park for a couple of hours. After, Dave and I went to Wildfire for a free dinner! (Coupons and gift cards!) I enjoyed this nice wine flight.

Pooch had a nice time today at the park, but wanted to play tonight by his clear move of bringing me the ball.

Yeah!! We are finally home! Today was a long day of travel. We woke up at 6 am Dublin time which is 12 am central. So after a lengthy wait at the airport and a 7 hour flight, we made it to NYC.

Business class was great! I watched a movie, had some wine… Ate a lot of food.

Then we had a 3 hour layover in NYC and sat in the Sky Lounge soaking up the wifi and biscotti cookies. We loaded onto the plane old school style.

We landed in MSP early and got a ride from Matthew “The Body” (thanks!) and also found a little surprise waiting for us from Shammie.

And of course, the best part of the day was being reunited with this pooch! (Thanks to Cara and Becca for watching him!) When he saw us, he jumped up an down on us for like 3 minutes… So cute.

Our last full day in Ireland! 😦 We had a great time…

First, we relaxed and had massages in the morning. Then we headed over to the Old Jameson Distillery where we had a guided tour and I was selected as a taster! I was certified and everything…
