Dear Kathleen,
         Glad to hear from you! I'm in the middle of final exam rush, so
unfortunately I must be brief. Yes, I found your suggestions very helpful,
and I hope to visit the places you mentioned. I had'nt thought of taking in
a movie in Ireland - but I'll definitely make a point of doing so. About
the pub scene, I just may try a couple; for some reason I have this vision
of singing "I'm not gonna work on Maggie's farm no more" while waving a
stein of Guinness =). While we're on the subject, do you have any
particularly calm pubs in mind? I'll have the Irish experience yet!
Later, dude. (Typical American girl-speak)!
                                - Natalie
