![]() ![]() ![]() He isn’t planning on attending, but I’m taking him anywhere I can. It will be his time to show off and it will be followed by mine.Īfter Ireland, we’re heading to London for Worldcon. The difference this time is that I’m old enough to appreciate it and smart enough to write some of it down. I recall my childhood trips to Ireland quite fondly and remember him dragging us around, showing my brother and me the castle he used to play in, the school where the Jesuits used to beat the children, and all manner of other events. I’m particularly looking forward to doing all this with Dad. I’ve lost count of just how many of them there are, but I look forward to seeing everyone again. In the time I’ve been gone, some of my cousins have had children and became grandparents. Most of my aunts, uncles, and cousins are still in Ireland. My parents visited “home” just a few years ago, but it’s been almost thirty years since I’ve been back. We’ll be spending most of our time in Navan, the town in which my parents were born and grew up. In a few days, we’ll pack up our bags and board a flight bound for Dublin, Ireland. This month, my father and I will embark on a little adventure. ![]()
