The banner to the blog is from a photo handing in Pops and Betty's home. It was a thank you present Betty received for helping a friend plan her honeymoon to Ireland. Betty has a knack for planning trips and lives to plan her next adventure! Luckily for me, I have a research partner in this endeavor (looking for more researchers btw!).
The research and the trip is about more than googling popular tourist spots (although there are some spectacular spots we plan to see). This trip is about going "home" to where WE are from, walking in the steps of our ancestors and listening to their stories.
This blog is about the journey of planning that trip and what history and destinations we find along the way.
This picture is of a cross-stitch hanging in the home of Pops and Betty. Although right now, it looks just like a map, over the next year and half it will come to life as little dots on a map transform into significant and meaningful destinations.
The first destination Pops and Betty suggested was The Cliffs of Moher. Its a destination they never fail to visit on all THREE trips they've take to Ireland. The Cliffs of Moher is an area of coastline on the Western coast of Ireland facing the Atlantic Ocean.
