Blogging from Belfast ...

Hi everyone ... We're in Belfast (Northern Ireland) now doing a little sightseeing after spending 4 wonderful days in Co. Cavan (Republic of Ireland) with Margaret's Aunt Cora, Uncle Vincent, and the whole extended Rudden clan.

Devin had a blast at Cora and Vincent's farm where she saw some baby calves up close and held some new baby chicks and successfully transported a fresh egg all the way down the gravel path to the house.

Yesterday at Uncle Aidan's she petted a pregnant donkey, who's about to give birth any moment.

Margaret and I also had a rare night out at a local pub (Thanks for babysitting, Aunt Cora!) where we got to see Margaret's 21-year-old cousin Damien playing guitar in a band.

Cora lent us her GPS device which helped us find our B&B in Belfast and it's a beautufl day today and we're about to go to the Botanical Garden here. And then tomorrow we may head off for a day trip to Giant's Causeway before spending a few days with the other wing of Margaret's faily in Counties Roscommon and Mayo.

We have lots of great pix, but it's harder to load them on the road.

Hope you're all well, and we're looking forward to heading back home in a week's time.

Love,
Jordan, Margaret and Devin
