Here we are...in Ireland...eating cake!

Well we have arrived safe and sound. Today was a day of getting settled, working on music for the weekend and talking through the plans for the week with Denny and Linda. We are soon to head to bed to try and make up for the lost sleep on the planes. The flights went well, but I don't think either one of us got much sleep. Tomorrow we head to the retreat center to get ready for the weekend. The guest will arrive around 5:00pm and then it is a laid back evening of getting to know people. Saturday morning I will be speaking and Leona will sing a few songs, in the evening we will be doing a mini concert and sharing some of our lives stories. Then I will speak again on Sunday morning and Leona will sing again. We are looking forward to a good time with all of the ladies. I am hoping to connect with some of those who were at last years retreat and I am excited for Leona to meet them as well. Denny and Linda are taking great care of us: we have had some wonderful meals and we each have our own room at their house. We will try and write again tomorrow before we head to the retreat and then when we get back on Sunday night we will fill you in on all that has happened while we were away. Until then.....good night.
Oh, I almost forgot the cake part...tomorrow is Denny's birthday so we celebrated it with him tonight and had birthday cake...did I mention that we are having great meals?
