Kat has sent a link to the Disney Cruise Site to consider for my 65th vacation.
I guess it is too much to expect that there would be activities for kids under 3.

Reign over me
is a good movie.
I would have thought I would never see a movie with a 9/11 connection I would like.
And Adam Sandler in a serious role? hooda thunk!

entertainment - no cover charge - Friday (3 of 11)
Bought "hop on, hop off" bus tour tickets. When we got to the Guinness factory, driver advised getting off then before the Q got too long. Good advice!
Afterward we got back on and finished the tour.
Hungry so we went looking for a pub. Found the Dakota. Great smoked salmon sandwich for only E7.5.
Of course there was a rugby tournament so it took over 1/2 hr to get a table and another 1/2 hr + to get food.
p.s. Ireland won the game but lost the title on some rule based on total points for the tournament.

entertainment - no cover charge - Monday (6 of 11)
After the B&B breakfast, we checked out of the B&B. The debit card was locked out due to the fact I forgot my pin. After we got that straightened out, we just barely had time to catch the bus to the airport to pick up the van -- nice VW van.
On the way back to get the luggage and everybody, I got lost. It took so long we were late getting on the road. We arrived at the west coast just in time for the sun to set on the cliffs of Mohare. Just as well. I was thoroughly pissed (American not British) because I had to drive back roads, some of which are barely over one lane, on the left side of the road. Will never drive in a country like this again!

entertainment - no cover charge - Sunday (5 of 11)
Mickey and Derek and Kileigh went on a "hunt" set up by the city.
It was so cold that Beth stayed in mostly and we went with Madison along for a bit. Halfway through we declared we were cold and hungry and went to a pub called Dakota which has relatively inexpensive food. While we were there:
The wind almost blew off the awnings.
The hailstorm was followed by snow.
They canceled fireworks due to inclement weather.
When we got back we were sitting in the B&B front parlor when we saw a truck him a guy on a bike. Guy was ok. We were more shook than he was.
Then we went to Mass across the street from the B&B. Reminded me of the first Mass I saw at St Boniface in the East Street Valley -- so many questionable things.
The Mass is called a "Gospel Mass." A weak try.
Because the Mass was late on Sunday and possibly because the next day was St Joseph's day which (I am told) is a day of obligation in Ireland, they dropped the first reading!
A layman said the Kyrie and then the choir sang part of it.
They sang Mass parts but failed to sing the Great Amen!
