it is our second day in ireland and we finally figured out a way to
grab some internet access! we had two problems... the first being that
we neglected to check the adapters/converters we brought with us --
none of them were "grounded". the second being that we had no internet
access from the park house hotel in galway.

getting pictures up is still a MAJOR
hassle as we have lost connectivity to eric's (his fault!) home system.
we will endeavor to figure it out tonight -- after we go to the bar.
ahem.
