Many thanks from Ruairi for the birthday wishes and gifts. We are very excited about the LL BEAN certificate. We are going to combine forces with the one from the Schultens and buy a tent for camping excursions. We had a great weekend, and are actually still sitting around with quite a few stragglers from yesterday watching movies and have a small dinner party. on friday night, Darina and Maurice's present was a fancy dinner on them. We went to Daedalus in Harvard square (fitting as it is the first restaurant we ate in when Ruairi arrived in March), and had an absolutely amazing meal of duck and pork respectively with a delicious Chilean red. My plan was to organize a pub crawl on the day itself as Ruairi often laments the lack of pub culture here in the states. The crawl turned into about about a 7 hour session at a great little Irish pub nearby and about 10 friends came by to celebrate with us. We were on to a good thing, and it made no sense whatsoever to leave. The main point was hours of sitting around enjoying the "Craic". A great time was had by all:) Many thanks again, I think ruairi's first ever birthday away from home was a memorable one.
love,
