Our flight over went about as well as it could have. We had the entire middle 4 seats of the front row of the plane to ourselves, plus Jasper and Pat took over 2 seats by the window.
Both kids slept pretty well, and didn't make a fuss, but it was still a very short night. I really don't understand why they serve 2 meals on a 6 hour overnight flight.
We picked up our rental car and drove to our AirBnb in the outskirts of Dublin. Pat did a great job driving standard, on the left hand side, after < 1 hour of sleep.
Our house is lived in by 4 kids, aged 10 months- 6 years, so there is plenty of baby and kid stuff to use. If we were here the whole time, we'd only have needed 1 suitcase!
We were all pretty beat after the flight, so we stayed nearby, got some groceries and went to the park.
Spring has arrived here a few weeks earlier than at home, so everything is nice and green.
Our hiccup so far is that we brought the wrong plug adapters. Although Ireland is in the EU, it does not have the same shaped plug. Oops! We couldn't find an adapter in the stores nearby, but shouldn't have a problem getting one once we're in a more touristy area.
Tomorrow, we're heading to the Dublin Children's Musesum and then downtown to explore. That is if the kids will leave this house- there's even a trampoline in the backyard!
